Silo Season 2: Renewal, Cast, Story & Everything We Know (2024)

The first season of Silo was not even finished when Apple renewed the sci-fi show for another volume, and even more exciting Silo season 2 news has followed since. Silo is based on a series of novels by author Hugh Howey, and tells the story of thousands of people living in a giant silo that acts as an underground bunker. Residents of the silo are forbidden from exploring the outside world. Rebecca Ferguson stars as an engineer named Juliette who begins investigating what happens to people who attempt to leave the silo and how the residents are controlled.

Silo premiered on Apple TV Plus on May 5, 2023, and the Silo season 1 finale became available on the streaming platform beginning June 30, 2023. Since Silo's debut, the show has developed a loyal following and received positive reviews from critics. Trends in TV change frequently, and there has been a focus on producing miniseries that only receive one season over stories that take place over multiple seasons. Silo being renewed for season 2 signals just how big of a hit it is for Apple TV Plus and how much faith the streaming platform has in the adaptation.

After the sophom*ore season wrapped filming in March 2024, the latest news comes in the form of a Silo season 2 release window tease from Rebecca Ferguson. The Dune star spoke candidly about the progress being made on the second season, mentioning the lengthy editing process required to bring the effects-heavy sci-fi series to life. However, she was also quick to point out that they are aiming for a 2024 release window. Though it seems like a stretch, a 2024 release is certainly a possibility.

Read Ferguson's full comments below:

We don't have a release date. We have something we're working towards. I have all 10 episodes of studio cuts, but then it's grading VFX, and there's so much that needs to be done. I think we're hoping for a date, and I think we're pushing for it. I think Apple is incredible at their response to needed editorial changes. I think the collaboration is so good between the directors in the studio that I don't see why it wouldn't work. But that is out of my hands.

Silo Season 2 Is Confirmed

Apple TV+ Has Renewed The Sci-Fi Series

Silo season 2 news confirmed the continuation of the series in June 2023. Apple TV+ head of programming Matt Cherniss revealed in a statement that the streamer believed in the show since the start. This implies that adapting the books beyond the first season was always in the cards, but viewership numbers still needed to be good enough to commit, and they have been.

Silo Season 2 Production Status

Filming Wrapped in March 2024

The production of Silo season 2 was impacted by the 2023 Hollywood strikes, but the show began production in early 2024 and eventually wrapped in March of the same year. However, the VFX-heavy series will require a lengthy edit process that will surely extend the wait for season 2. Rebeccas Ferguson has implied that the Apple TV+ series is aiming for a 2024 release, and it seems plausible as long as no other delays pop up along the way.

Silo Season 2 Cast Info

Dune's Rebecca Ferguson Returns As Juliette

Though the show wrapped filming in March 2024, no word has come regarding the cast of Silo season 2.

This means that expected returning cast members include:

Actor	Silo Role
Rebecca Ferguson	Juliette
Common	Robert Sims
Tim Robbins	Bernard
Avi Nash	Lukas
Chinaza Uche	Paul

Silo Season 2 Story Details

Juliette's Search For Answers Continues

Because Silo is based on books, there is some source material for the season 2 story to follow. The second book, Shift, is a prequel. Since Silo features multiple changes from the books, future seasons might not follow the prequel storyline and will instead interweave flashbacks into the current plot. With confirmation that Silo season 2 is happening, the series will likely pick up directly after the startling season 1 cliffhanger when Juliette steps outside only to live.

Silo season 1 asked two main questions; what really happens when characters leave the silo, and how much does Judicial actually know about the world? For season 2 to move forward and stay engaging for viewers, it will eventually need to expand its universe. This means that Juliette may have to venture out into the world now that she's left the silo and lived. Because of this, it can be expected that Silo season 2 will introduce new characters, locations, and plot lines outside the silo.
