Chris is a Senior News Writer for Collider. He can be found in an IMAX screen, with his eyes watering and his ears bleeding for his own pleasure. He joined the news team in 2022 and accidentally fell upwards into a senior position despite his best efforts.
For reasons unknown, he enjoys analyzing box office receipts, giant sharks, and has become known as the go-to man for all things Bosch, Mission: Impossible and Christopher Nolan in Collider’s news division. Recently, he found himself yeehawing along to the Dutton saga on the Yellowstone Ranch.
He is proficient in sarcasm, wit, Photoshop and working unfeasibly long hours. Amongst his passions sit the likes of the history of the Walt Disney Company, the construction of theme parks, steam trains and binge-watching Gilmore Girls with a coffee that is just hot enough to scald him.
His obsession with the Apple TV+ series Silo is the subject of mockery within the Senior News channel, where his feelings about Taylor Sheridan’s work are enough to make his fellow writers roll their eyes.

There are few science fiction shows that buy into their mysteries and keep going and going with them to the point that you can’t wait to see what’s next. You know what does? Silo. What began with a few thousand survivors living underground and forbidden from discovering what was waiting outside has gradually revealed a much larger story surrounding the origins of the silos and the people responsible for them. Now, the end is officially in sight.
After the dual storylines came together in a shocking finale, Season 4 will have the considerable task of bringing the sprawling mystery surrounding the silos to an end. The series has always been building toward answers about why humanity was forced underground, who created the silos, and what really happened to the world outside, and with the explosive final two episodes bringing it all to a head, we can’t wait to see what’s next. A sneak peek at Season 4, which premieres next July, has given us a look at what’s to come.
The series features Rebecca Ferguson (Dune: Part Three), Common (Never Have I Ever) as Robert Sims, **Harriet Walter **(Succession) as Martha Walker, Tim Robbins (War of the Worlds) as Bernard Holland, Chinaza Uche (A Good Person) as Paul Billings, Avi Nash (The Walking Dead) as Lukas Kyle, and Shane McRae (The Bear) as Knox. The series is based on the books by Hugh Howey. Silo Season 3 currently holds a 96% Certified Fresh critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
Silo creator Graham Yost spoke to Collider in the wake of the shocking finale, which saw Season 3’s dual headlines come together with a devastating twist. When **Tania Hussain **asked Yost about what questions we should be asking heading into Season 4, he said, “Why. I think that’s the big question. Why? And Bernard had an answer earlier on, I think in Episode 8, where Juliette says, “We’re going to risk everyone’s lives to do this?” And he says, “Well, if we cap the Safeguard, then we can have a conversation. If they convince us of everything they’re doing,” he says, “We’ll uncap the pipe, and we’ll drink the waters of oblivion if their reasons are good. But we have to be part of the conversation. We have to be told. We can’t just be ignorant and say, ‘Okay, kill us if you want.’ So, what’s the why? That’s the big question of Season 4, and a big part of the end of Season 3 is to set that up, set up that here comes war.” He continued, saying:
“Helen, Drew, and Charlotte, we finally realized in the writers’ room, are the source of everything. The entire story started when Charlotte reached out to Helen and said, “I have concerns.” And it was that simple act of, “This doesn’t feel right. I don’t know what’s going on,” with this mission that they had planned. And so, it all comes back to that. So, Helen Drew is critical to why Juliette is able to do what Juliette is able to do. The other thing we find, you’ll see in Season 4, is you *will *see what happens to Helen and Troy.”
Silo Season 4 premieres July 9, 2027, on Apple TV.
In a dystopian future, men and women reside in a vast underground silo governed by strict regulations, believed to shield them from the hazardous world above. The series delves into the complex social order within the silo and the mysteries surrounding their subterranean existence.
