SDCC News: Apple’s hit drama ‘Silo’ to make San Diego Comic-Con debut with Rebecca Ferguson, Common, creator/showrunner Graham Yost, EP/author Hugh Howey.

Apple-Hit-Drama-SiloApple TV+ today announced that “Silo,” its globally acclaimed and hit world-building drama based on Hugh Howey’s New York Times bestselling trilogy, will make its San Diego Comic-Con debut on Saturday July 27, 2024 for a panel and conversation around what fans can look forward to in the highly anticipated second season of “Silo” featuring star and executive producer Rebecca Ferguson, star Common, creator and showrunner Graham Yost and executive producer Hugh Howey, plus surprise special guests.
