After the twisty finale for season two of Silo, Apple TV+ has made it official and tapped Ashley Zukerman and Jessica Henwick to star in the upcoming third season of the popular sci-fi series.
Zukerman, who played Nate on HBO’s Succession, will star as Daniel, a young and hungry congressman, while Iron Fist’s Henwick will play Helen, a whip-smart reporter. Season three of Silo will continue to be showrun by Graham Yost and will see Rebecca Ferguson returning as Juliette, an engineer who has sought answers about a loved one’s murder.
At the end of season two, Juliette returned to the silo amid a flashback to contemporary Washington D.C. that could well have foreshadowed the drama of the upcoming season. Apple TV earlier renewed Silo for two more seasons to allow the show to tell a complete story based on a trilogy of novels by Hugh Howey.
The mystery series is set around the last 10,000 people on Earth and their mile-deep home protecting them from the toxic and deadly world outside. No one knows when or why the silo was built and those trying to find out face fatal consequences.
Silo is produced by Apple Studios and is executive produced by Yost, Howey, Ferguson and Morten Tyldum, who also directs. Nina Jack, Fred Golan, Rémi Aubuchon and Michael Dinner and Joanna Thapa and AMC serve as executive producers on the second season.
Henwick is repped by CAA, imPRint and Jackoway Austen. Zukerman is repped by Aligned Entertainment, The Gersh Agency, Lisa Mann Creative Management in Australia and Felker, Toczek, Suddleson, Abramson Esq.
