Apple TV+ has officially renewed Silo, its critically acclaimed sci-fi series, for season two. The renewal announcement arrived ahead of the premiere of episode eight of the 10-episode first season.
“It has been enormously fulfilling to see the engrossing, atmospheric and beautifully crafted sci-fi epic Silo quickly become Apple’s number one drama series,” stated Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. “As audiences around the world have become gripped by the mysteries and conspiracies buried within this fascinating subterranean world, viewership only continues to climb, and we are so excited for more secrets of the silo to be revealed in season two.”
Based on Hugh Howey’s bestselling trilogy, Silo season one stars Rebecca Ferguson (Dune), Common (The Chi), Emmy nominee Harriet Walter (Succession), Chinaza Uche (Dickinson), Avi Nash (The Walking Dead), Critics Choice Award and NAACP winner David Oyelowo (Selma), Emmy nominee Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation), and Academy Award winner Tim Robbins (Mystic River).
Two-time Emmy Award winner Graham Yost (The Pacific, From Earth to the Moon) created the series and guides the epic sci-fi tale as showrunner. Yost, Ferguson, author Hugh Howey, Nina Jack, Fred Golan, Rémi Aubuchon, Ingrid Escajeda, and Morten Tyldum serve as executive producers.
“We cannot wait for audiences around the world to immerse themselves in the epic world we have created to bring Hugh Howey’s novels to life,” said Yost. “Apple has believed in our vision from day one and it’s an honor to have the opportunity to dig deeper into this story and peel back the layers to our characters in the silo.”

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 any 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.
