Ferguson plays Juliette, an engineer who uncovers the mystery while seeking answers about a loved one's murder.Silo premiered on Apple TV+ in May, with Episode 8 to be released Friday.

"As audiences around the world have become gripped by the mysteries and conspiracies buried within this fascinating subterranean world, viewership only continues to climb, and we are so excited for more secrets of the silo to be revealed in season two."
