According to Deadline, Apple TV+’s science fiction thriller series Silo has been renewed for season two. The series is based on Hugh Howey’s (Across the Sand, Halfway Home) bestselling dystopian novel trilogy.

Deadline reported that it debuted globally on May 5 as the #1 drama on Apple TV+, according to Nielsen. Since then, its viewership has increased by double digits.

Silo follows the last ten thousand people on earth who are protected from the deadly and toxic outside world by their mile-deep home. No one knows why or when the silo was built and anyone who attempts to learn faces fatal consequences.

It stars Rebecca Ferguson (The Greatest Showman, Doctor Sleep) as Juliette. She is an engineer who looks for answers about the murder of a loved one, which leads her to stumble into a mystery that goes much deeper than she could have imagined. She begins to discover that if the lies don’t kill you, the truth will.

The series was created by showrunner Graham Yost (Boomtown, Justified) and is produced by AMC Studios for Apple TV+. Morten Tyldum (Passengers, Fallen Angels) directed the first three episodes and executive produced along with Ferguson, Howey, Yost, Ingrid Escajeda (Justified, Empire), Nina Jack (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul), Rémi Aubuchon (Caprica, The Lyon’s Den), and Fred Golan (The Commons, Sneaky Pete).

Alongside Ferguson, Silo stars David Oyelowo (Selma, A United Kingdom), Tim Robbins (Mystic River, The Shawshank Redemption), Common (John Wick: Chapter 2, Suicide Squad), Chinaza Uche (Little America, Dickinson), Harriet Walter (Ted Lasso, Killing Eve), Rashida Jones (The Office, Parks and Recreation), and Avi Nash (Learning to Drive, Amateur Night).

The newest episode is titled “Hanna” and launches on Friday on Apple TV+. In the episode, Juliette comes across new information that makes her see her family’s past differently and she finally learns the truth about silo’s biggest secrets.
