‘Silo’ trailer: A dystopian underground society hides chilling secrets

Apple TV+ is serving up a healthy portion of dystopian drama with its upcoming show Silo.

Based on Hugh Howey’s trilogy of the same name, Silo is a 10-episode series about the last 10,000 people on Earth. They live in a mile-deep underground community in order to protect them from the toxic dangers that lurk aboveground. No one knows exactly why the silo was built or what the outside world is truly like; people who ask these questions tend to get killed. Still, engineer Juliette (Rebecca Ferguson) is determined to learn the truth after a loved one’s murder. Her quest for answers unveils a deeper mystery than she previously thought, one that will have devastating consequences for her and her entire community.

Silo premieres on Apple TV+ May 5.
