According to Stephen King, the dystopian series Silo, set in the near future, is a real hit: “This is excellent sci-fi with three-dimensional characters,” he enthusiastically described the first season in a recent tweet on Twitter. and… terribly exciting.” But King is not the only fan of the production, which features Dune actress Rebecca Ferguson and Game Of Thrones actor Iain Glen. The Apple TV+ series has a whopping 87 positive reviews on the review aggregator site and is also so successful that a second season has already been announced.
If you want to see ‘Silo’ in its entirety, you should consider an Apple TV+ subscription. However, for those who want to get a glimpse of the series first, here’s a great opportunity beyond just a trailer (and it’s completely legal, too): Apple TV shared the first episode of “Silo” in its entirety on Twitter!
60 minute videos are long gone on Twitter. With the introduction of the Twitter Blue subscription by Elon Musk, the ability to post messages longer than four minutes was unlocked. This of course quickly led to series and films (parts) also ending up illegally on Twitter. But ‘Silo’ is a posting from the official Apple TV account, with which the tech company is preparing for the season finale in a few days – of course, a Twitter Blue subscription is not required.
That’s what “Silo” is about
Nothing is as it was. The people live deep underground in huge silos, ruled by strict rulers who rule with an iron fist. Anyone who rebels must face death. When engineer Juliette (Ferguson) makes a testing discovery, she no longer wants to be subjugated and sets out to discover a truth that can liberate humanity. She keeps putting her own life on the line.
“Silo” is based on a trilogy of novels by Hugh Howey, which includes the three books “Silo”, “Level” and “Exit”. The first volume serves as a template for the ten-part first season of “Silo”. The second season already ordered will then adjust “Level” accordingly. So if you can’t wait for the series to continue on Apple TV+, grab the book now.
