One of the best TV shows of 2023, Apple TV+’s dystopian sci-fi thriller Silo has it all. Murder! Mystery! Rebecca Ferguson! A mile-deep subterranean structure that acts as a barrier betweeen humanity’s dwindling populace and the apocalyptic wasteland on the Earth’s surface! In fact, so popular proved the adaptation of Hugh Howey’s novels that before the first season had even finished, the streamer greenlit Season 2. Now, having teased “more secrets of the silo to be revealed,” Apple have shared some juicy first look images from our upcoming return to the down deep. Check them out:
At the end of Silo’s first season – Spoiler Alert! – we saw engineer-turned-marshal Juliette (Ferguson) finally leaving the titular superstructure and stepping out onto the surface world. There, she discovered that the verdant utopia she suspected The Founders were hiding from the Silo’s residents was in fact a VR simulation; that...

We’re getting a look at some of the first footage for Season 2 of both Severance and Silo. It was released today at the 2024 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference as part of a “Coming to Apple TV+” teaser video.
The video opens with the return of Adam Scott’s Mark Scout to Lumen Industries. Director and executive producer Ben Stiller took to Instagram in January to confirm that the Apple TV+ drama series had returned to production after a months-long delay due to the Hollywood strikes.
From creator and writer Dan Erickson and Stiller, Severance stars Scott as Mark Scout, who leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in ‘work-life balance’ is called into question as Mark finds himself at the center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to...

Nowadays, the quality of a TV series is practically no different from a movie, and the possibilities for directors, writers and artists are expanding. This attracts professionals to TV series production, TV shows budgets are growing, and as a result, the visual style is becoming more sophisticated, and the narratives become more and more complex.

My guest this week is Rebecca Ferguson. She recently reprised her role of Lady Jessica with Dune: Part Two, and plays the lead role in Silo, Apple TV+’s dystopian series about a community gone underground following an apocalyptic event. Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer-reluctantly-turned-sheriff, who uncovers alarming secrets while investigating a mysterious death.
Here, Ferguson describes the “intoxicating” experience of making the show, working with showrunner Graham Yost and her EP role, plus the elaborate and stunning sets and VFX work that went into it all.
As for Season 2 plans, how close will the show adhere to Hugh Howey’s original book series, on which it’s based? “I couldn’t possibly say,” Ferguson laughs, “but can you guess? No, don’t guess!”
Ferguson also addresses whether her character of Ilsa Faust would ever make a posthumous appearance in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two…

This is one of the best characters that I will ever play,” he says, explaining further that “the crew we have, from hair and makeup to our camera crew to obviously set design, costume design.

With Dune: Part Two’s success, Rebecca Ferguson’s filmography—which features a lead in a highly regarded sci-fi series currently airing on Apple TV+—has garnered more recognition. Yes, we are discussing Graham Yost’s science fiction dystopian drama TV series Silo. The Swedish actress expertly donned the role of Juliette Nichols, who is entangled in a web of mystery spanning the past and present.
Having said that, she obviously had to put in a lot of work to deliver a strong and complex performance. If you were to find out that she had “studied trauma” in order to assume this role, how would you respond? Well, she actually did this.
Critics gave the series favorable reviews, praising Ferguson’s performance and the production design. However, the actress has not gotten the recognition that her stellar performance so richly merits.

The Apple TV+ dystopian science fiction drama Silo was one of the streaming platform’s most successful series in 2023. The Graham Yost-created series was adapted from Hugh Howey‘s short stories. Set in a dystopian society, Silo season 1 was based on Howey’s first short story, Wool. Fans and readers of Hugh Howey’s stories would no doubt admit the show did justice to the first part of the book. With the reception and ratings the show received after it premiered on May 5, 2023, Silo season 2 was greenlit for production while season 1 was still airing. With incredible performances from...

Here is a wrap-up of all the news you need to know from Monday, December 18, 2023.
NBC's Magnum P.I. will conclude with a two-hour series, finale it has been announced.
After ending 2023 with two episodes still in the can, there were questions about when the show would return.
TVLine has revealed that the two episodes will air back-to-back on Wednesday, January 3, 2024, beginning at 9 p.m. E.T.
It's a real shame the series is ending because Magnum P.I. Season 5 has been the show at its very best, and there are plenty of ways it could continue.
Despite the cancellation, its passionate fans are not giving up the hope of finding the series a third home.
Meanwhile, MGM+ has announced a pickup of Beacon 23 Season 2.

MGM+ has officially confirmed season two of the sci-fi thriller Beacon 23 will air on the streaming service. The series was originally set up with Spectrum Originals and AMC Networks, and a second season had already been ordered prior to season one’s premiere on MGM+ on November 12, 2023.
Seasons one and two were filmed back-to-back, but Spectrum Originals shut down in 2022 before season one aired. MGM+ snatched up the series, and their announcement confirms fans of the show based on Hugh Howey’s bestseller will return to the world of Beacon 23 in April 2024.
Zak Penn (Ready Player One) created the series and serves as an executive producer. Glen Mazzara (Damien) and Joy Blake (The Passage) are co-showrunners on the eight-episode second season and executive produce.
“Beacon 23‘s season two ups the game: more action, more mysteries, more twists, and exciting new characters,” said Glen Mazzara. “It’s a thrill ride.

The first season of sci-fi thriller “Beacon 23,” starring Lena Headey (“Game of Thrones”) and Stephan James (“If Beale Street Could Talk”), reached its conclusion Sunday with MGM+ dropping the eight-episode season’s final two installments. Showrunner Glen Mazzara spoke with TheWrap to break down the first season’s arc, where the show’s heading in Season 2 and more.
The following contains Spoilers for the finale of Season 1.
Lena Headey’s Aster suffered what appears to be a fatal injury in the Season 1 finale, when cultist Keir (Marc Menchaca) shot her with a concussive gun that knocked her back. Her head hit a railing and she fell, eyes open, apparently dead — though this is science fiction, so audiences will have to wait to see what comes next.
“There are obviously forces beyond her control, that have been affecting her — as she learns, they’ve been affecting her her entire life,...

MGM+ has renewed sci-fi mystery thriller series Beacon 23 for a second season. The eight-episode season 2 will premiere on the streaming service in April. The news is not a surprise. The series already had been renewed by Spectrum and AMC, where it originally had been greenlit, and MGM+ is now formally committing to air it.
Starring Stephan James and Lena Headey in Season 1, Beacon 23, based on the best-selling book by Hugh Howey, is created and executive produced by Zak Penn.
Set in the farthest reaches of the Milky Way, Season 1 followed Aster (Headey), a government agent, and Halan (James), a stoic ex-military man, whose fates became entangled after they found themselves trapped together inside one of many Beacons that served as a lighthouse for intergalactic travelers. In Season Two, Beacon 23 is now little more than a prison with Aleph onboard, and The Artifact provides more questions than answers.

MGM+ is returning to Beacon 23.
The premium cable network formerly known as Epix has officially picked up a second season of the sci-fi drama series starring Stephan James and Lena Headey.
The news comes as MGM+ just wrapped the first season of the drama from creator Zak Penn and aired a teaser for the second season of Beacon 23 (watch it below). Season two of the series, which was originally developed for Spectrum Originals and was poised to have a second window on AMC before the former bailed on originals, was already completed as filming on both cycles of the show was done back-to-back.
“The creative team behind Beacon 23 has masterfully brought Hugh Howey’s best-selling book to life, and we’re excited for fans to continue this journey into Beacon 23’s universe of suspense, emotion and unforeseen twists,” said Michael Wright, head of MGM+.

Apple TV has been on a winning streak with its recent TV series creating hit shows like Surveillance, and they aren’t stopping any time soon if their recent dystopian series is anything to go by. 2023’s Silo is a thrilling adventure series set in the far future based on the novel by Hugh Howey. Silo Season 1 is an adaptation of the first book in the best-selling trilogy. The novel and series adaptation is about a civilization that has been living in a bunker known as a silo for the last couple of decades after the earth was left uninhabitable.

It seems to tickle Graham Yost when people refer to Silo as a sci-fi drama.
Though the Apple series is as high-concept as it gets—the adaptation of Hugh Howey’s novels is about a futuristic community that exists in a massive underground vault with 144 floors — there are no spaceships in Silo. And there are certainly no lasers.
“It’s not science heavy,” says Yost, the clever mind behind FX’s Justified, who created the Rebecca Ferguson starrer for the streamer. “For me, it’s fantasy, it’s whatever. It’s alternate reality, all that stuff. But the key is to make it feel real and lived-in. I mean honestly, if you pick at the science too much, it falls apart.”
Several studios tried to pick apart Howey’s tomes before Silo finally became a small-screen reality. After Howey self-published Wool, the first book in his dystopian series in 2011, 20th Century Fox...

In the previous episode of Beacon 23, the sci-fi thriller based on Hugh Howey’s short story, Halan and Aster, stranded on the titular space station, faced a mysterious threat while searching for a valuable rock-like element. Halan, disguised as a beacon operator, was revealed to be an Awol soldier who murdered the previous beacon keeper named Solomon. Aster, with her AI, Harmony, managed to find the precious space minerals, but a group of bandits named the Wreckers intruded on the space station. Kaneddy, the minister of Elau Colony, joined the group seeking Qubits, a space currency. The revelation of Aster’s true identity and intense conflicts unfolded, leaving only Halan and Aster on the isolated space station, in the midst of a threatening situation.

“Ultimately, this is a mystery show, grounded on characters in a world that we could believe in,” declares “Silo” creator and showrunner Graham Yost. For our recent webchat he adds, “What is real and what isn’t? Who controls the knowledge? And then the big thing for me is, why is this happening? Why are they living underground? That kept me going through the three books,” he says, adding with a knowing smile, “buy the books, but don’t read them until the entire television series is over, because we’re going to veer in some ways and stay close in others. But mostly we want to get the fun of revealing the answers to the mysteries!” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

There’s a specific picture that comes up time and time again in MGM+’s Beacon 23, of a lone man standing just outside a lighthouse as a massive wave comes crashing from behind. Whether the man makes it inside, whether he drowns, why he was out there in the first place are left up for the viewer to imagine, based on their own hopes or fears. But the not-knowing casts a certain mood in itself.
It’s a fitting prop for a series that similarly proves more interested in raising questions than answering them, and that likewise suggests the uncertainty might be the point. Its endless searching can prove frustrating at times, particularly when the sci-fi drama stumbles over basic flaws in its storytelling. But those with enough curiosity and patience to wait out its rough patches — and those with a taste for cerebral sci-fi — may find themselves falling under its plaintive spell.

“They’re stuck with each other, but what can they do about it?” That’s what Beacon 23, for Lena Headey and Stephan James‘ characters, boils down to, says executive producer Glen Mazzara. Based on the best-selling book by Hugh Howey, the sci-fi mystery thriller (premiering November 12 on MGM+) takes place in the farthest reaches of the Milky Way. Aster (Headey) is a government agent and Halan (James) a stoic ex-military man, who find themselves trapped inside one oof the Beacons serving as a lighthouse for intergalactic travelers. (Each is run by a highly-trained human and a specialized Artificial Intelligence.) After Aster mysteriously finds her way to the lonely Beacon-keeper Halan, a tense battle of wills unfolds, and he questions if she’s friend or foe. Because “Halan and Aster are broken people and they have trusted people in the past and been burned, when they meet, they don’t trust each other,...

“If you see the opening title, you see just echoes of people,” explains Morten Tyldum about the mystery that imbues every level of the behemoth silo structure that sustains thousands of human beings in a post-apocalyptic world. For our recent webchat he adds, “you see these are ghostly people walking around, and that is the idea that humanity doesn’t really matter, it is the silo that endures.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

In “Silo,” the last 10,000 people on Earth are living in a gargantuan concrete silo a mile underground, supposedly keeping them safe from the destroyed and dangerous post-apocalyptic world outside. No one knows when or why the silo was built and anyone who asks too many questions gets in serious trouble.

Claustrophobia is a common side effect in the world-building of sci-fi writer Hugh Howey, whose postapocalyptic breakthrough Silo (filmed for Apple TV+) unfolds in a massive underground bunker. In the rather less compelling Beacon 23, based on a collection of his short stories, the setting is out of this world, the action largely contained within a futuristic lighthouse at the edge of the galaxy. This is where Halan (Homecoming’s Stephan James), a soldier who may have gone Awol, rescues the enigmatic Aster (Game of Thrones’ steely Lena Headey), sole survivor of a crashed vessel who appears to be an agent of the Interstellar Space Authority. There’s an immediate distrust between the two, inflamed by the facility’s gabby resident AI, named Bart (voiced by Wade Bogert-o’Brien), who accuses Halan of having murdered the most recent beacon keeper (a hilariously flamboyant Stephen Root). Why is Halan even there? What’s Aster’s story,...

"You were meant to come here... So was I." MGM+ has unveiled the full trailer for an intriguing sci-fi series called Beacon 23, set to launch in November. Beacon 23 was originally developed as a Spectrum Original series as part of an effort to entice cable subscribers, but this division was shut down and projects were sold off. It ended up at MGM and is ready to go. The story unfolds in the farthest reaches of the Milky Way in the 23rd Century following Aster (starring Lena Headey), a government agent, and Halan (Stephan James), a stoic ex-military man working at Beacon 23. They find their fates entangled after becoming trapped inside one of many Beacons that serve as a lighthouse for intergalactic travellers. Every Beacon is run by one highly trained human and a specialized A.I. Halan doesn't trust Aster, as not everything is at it seems. This...

Gearing up for the holidays, Disney+ series “The Santa Clauses” has dropped the trailer for its second season.
Set after the events of “The Santa Clause” films, the Christmas television series has Tim Allen reprising his role as Scott Calvin/Santa, who decides to retire from the “Santa” position in season one and find a new replacement. However, the end of the first season saw Scott fail to find an individual worthy of the “Santa” title. This time around, Scott is determined to train his son, Cal (Austin Kane), to be the perfect Santa successor.
“The best part of Christmas is spending time with your loved ones,” Scott says in the new trailer. “Which is why I’m so geeked to turn Santa into a family business.”
All doesn’t go smoothly for the Calvin family, though, and there’s a new “Mad Santa” (Eric Stonestreet) who was previously exiled...

In space, no one can hear you scream — and no one knows who to trust, either.
MGM+ has released the official trailer for Beacon 23, an eight-episode sci-fi thriller starring Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) and Stephan James (Homecoming). In the trailer — which you can watch above — Headey plays a government agent named Aster who crash-lands into a space station run by James’ character Halan. They’re cordial at first, but things turn frosty when Aster asks to see the station’s data, and Halan bluntly refuses. “He’s hiding something,” Aster decides, and when Halan brings up the concept of “we,...

While Parks and Recreation began as a workplace mockumentary launching off of the popularity of The Office, it has since become a pop-culture phenomenon of its own. The series continues to be a fan favorite nearly a decade after the series finale, as do many of the actors that brought this beloved show and the town of Pawnee, Indiana to life. From animation to sci-fi to popular franchises, the Parks and Rec cast has explored a variety of genres and mediums in the years since the series’ end.
Across film and television, here are the Parks and Recreation cast’s best post-Parks roles.
