As theSiloseason 2 premiere fast approaches,Entertainment Weeklynow has an exclusive clip to share of episode 1’s opening five minutes.The clip begins with a rebellion brewing in a new silo, and it quickly escalates into a full-on assault on silo law enforcementas citizens fight to escape. After some shocking moments of bloodshed, the rebels make it to the staircase to the outside world. In a grim turn, the clip then cuts toJuliette finding all the rebels' decaying bodieson the surface. Check out the clip below:
What Silo’s Season 2’s Rebellion Means For Juliette
Rebecca Ferguson’s Character Could Have To Save More Than Just Herself
TheSiloseason 1 endingsees Juliette heading outside to “clean,” which is essentially a death sentence, and the last audiences see of her, she’s looking out over a post-apocalyptic wasteland at dozens of other silos. The rebellion in the clip suggests thata major part of season 2 will be exploring what has become of these other civilizations. At least one has clearly been decimated by a rebellion, with citizens coming to doubt that the outside world is truly toxic, just as Juliette did in season 1.
Silo’s Riskiest Story Makes Me Worried About Apple TV+ Continuing The Sci-Fi Series After Season 2
Silo will have to eventually adapt the original books' riskiest story, making me worried about how the Apple TV+ show will continue after season 2.
This rebellion also mirrors a potential future for others in theSilocast of characters. Yost previously teased thatJuliette making it over the hill has made residents question the leadership of figures like Bernard Holland(Tim Robbins) and Robert Sims (Common). This tees up a potential storyline of Juliette having to return home to prevent her former silo-mates from rebelling and dooming themselves.

The Apple TV+ Series Could Be Even More Action-Packed
Siloseason 1 reviews were generally positive and the show was massive hit, but the pacing did sometimes feel a little slow. Season 2 is looking to up the ante, andthe rebellion featured in the clip is really the first instance of this kind of large-scale action being shown on-screenin the series. If the clip is a sign of what’s to come in the later episodes of season 2, then audiences could be in for an even more intense ride when the Apple TV+ series returns.
