Even though Silo Season 2 comes out in November, creator Graham Yost already has an ending in mind for the hit Apple TV+ series. While the number of seasons is still up for debate, Yost says his team will stick to the source material in Hugh Howey’s trilogy of novels. In Yost’s words, he won’t “drag it on too long.”
“The books are a trilogy. This is not Outlander,” Yost told GamesRadar. “This is not a long science fiction series. It’s a trilogy. We’re not going to extend it beyond that.”
Silo Season 1 only covers about half of Howey’s first novel in the series. Though Yost promises the show will not overstay its welcome, he cares more about delivering in “logical time” than putting a specific number on when it will wrap up.
“That doesn’t mean it’s going to be three seasons, but it’s not going to be 10,” Yost added. “It is our goal to answer questions and not frustrate the audience, but deliver things in a logical time so that when our characters find something out, that’s when the audience finds out.”
Who is involved in Silo?
Silo stars Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Robbins, Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, Alexandria Riley, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Clare Perkins, Billy Postlethwaite, Rick Gomez, Caitlin Zoz, Tanya Moodie and Iain Glen. Steve Zahn joins the cast for Season 2.
The Apple TV+ synopsis reads: “Silo is the story of the last ten thousand people on earth, their mile-deep home protecting them from the toxic and deadly world outside. However, no one knows when or why the silo was built and those who try to find out face fatal consequences. Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer who seeks answers about a loved one’s murder and tumbles onto a mystery that goes far deeper than she could have ever imagined, leading her to discover that if the lies don’t kill you, the truth will.”
Silo is created and executive produced by Yost. Additional executive producers include Michael Dinner, Nina Jack, Joanna Thapa, Ferguson, Morten Tyldum, Howey, Fred Golan, Rémi Aubuchon, and AMC Studios. Silo is produced for Apple TV+ by Apple Studios.
Silo Season 2 premieres on November 15, 2024. Catch up by streaming all 10 episodes of Season 1 on Apple TV+.
