“Silo” Season 3 is already building out its cast.
Variety has learned that both Jessica Henwick and Ashley Zukerman are set to appear as series regulars in the upcoming third season of the Apple TV+ post-apocalyptic drama based on Hugh Howey’s “Wool” novel trilogy.
Zukerman will play Daniel, described as a “young and hungry congressman,” while Henwick will play Helen, said to be a “whip-smart reporter.” Both actors recently appeared in the Season 2 finale and will continue in the same roles in Season 3.
The casting news comes roughly one month after Apple renewed the show for both Seasons 3 and 4, with Season 4 set to be the final season.
Henwick’s previous TV credits include “Game of Thrones,” “Iron Fist,” and “Silk,” while she has also been in films like “Glass Onion,” “The Matrix Resurrections,” and “The Royal Hotel.” She is repped by CAA, imPRint, and Jackoway Austen Tyerman.
Zukerman has starred in shows such as “Manhattan” and “The Lost Symbol” while he has also had roles in shows like “Succession” and “Designated Survivor.” He also appeared in the Apple show “City on Fire” and will appear in the streamer’s upcoming series “Apple Cider Vinegar.” In film, he has starred in all three films in the “Fear Street” franchise. He is repped by Aligned Entertainment, Gersh, Lisa Mann Creative Management in Australia, and Felker Toczek.
Per the official description, “Silo” tells the story of the “last ten thousand people on Earth, their mile-deep home protecting them from the toxic and deadly world outside. However, no one knows when or why the silo was built and any who try to find out face fatal consequences. Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer, who seeks answers about a loved one’s murder and tumbles onto a mystery that goes far deeper than she could have ever imagined, leading her to discover that if the lies don’t kill you, the truth will.”
Rebecca Ferguson stars alongside Tim Robbins, Common, Steve Zahn, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, Alexandria Riley, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Billy Postlethwaite, Rick Gomez, Clare Perkins, Caitlin Zoz, Tanya Moodie, and Iain Glen.
Graham Yost developed “Silo” for television and serves as executive producer and showrunner. Ferguson is also an executive producer along with Nina Jack, Fred Golan, Rémi Aubuchon and Michael Dinner and Joanna Thapa, and AMC. Morten Tyldum serves as an executive producer and director on the series. Apple Studios produces.
