Join our DiscordĬome chat with us in the Down Deep Discord Episode Discussion Hubs r/SiloSeries is the unofficial subreddit for news and discussion of Silo, the post-apocalyptic television show on Apple TV+, as well as the WOOL series of books written by Hugh Howey that the show is based on. The show is great.We recommend using the new Reddit layout. Let me be clear, there were times I was watching where it was hard for me to watch it myself, to be honest, but I had to get over that, so I could watch the show because the show is fun. It was one of those things where you’re like, “Man, what is gonna happen? Wait, I thought this person was this.” I’m a sucker for good thrillers, and that’s what Silo is. And some things my character is not even in, so it was very interesting to see what was going on. This material has a lot to it, so you don’t remember everything that was going on. When I watched the episode, I had forgot what happened. We filmed that last year, and finished somewhere in June. What was your reaction to learning how everything would end up this season?ĬOMMON: It’s funny because I read the script, and then we filmed it, and there were some stops and starts in filming. What did you think, when you read the final script for Silo? Even if you knew where things were going, it’s always different to read it in the script and see it on paper. But a Western, like Buffalo Soldiers or something in that vein, I would love that. I wouldn’t wanna do pre- Hell on Wheels because then he would be a slave. The writers for Silo did an incredible job at giving Sims the story of not just being a heavy, but giving me an opportunity to show the humanity in this person and to show this human being that cares for something more than himself.ĬOMMON: I would love to do another Western, as long as it’s really character driven. Wait, hold up, he’s not just a gangster.” You’ve gotta find those places where you can find the humanity. I’ve read things and been like, “Man, I don’t wanna play this gangster. While I’m reading, I remind myself not to because you can. It’s so that other people can understand, this may be somebody who’s made some bad choices and done some rugged things, but this person still cares about their family, and they still like love and wanna be loved. That’s why you look for the humanity in people and in the characters you play. I try not to judge people in life, so I don’t wanna judge a character. Whether a person is doing certain things and not looking at themselves like, “Man, I’m a bad person,” or if there’s something that’s driving them to do those things, I could never judge that. All of those things just made it become even greater.Īre you someone who forms an opinion on a character, immediately when you’re going to be playing someone, or do you try to put off forming any opinion of them?ĬOMMON: I do my best to try to put off an opinion because I can’t judge a person. And then, I knew all the elements that were around it, like who my character is in this story, and Graham Yost being the showrunner, and Rebecca Ferguson being the lead, and Tim Robbins. I knew it was special writing and that the writers were incredible. All those elements meant something, but it started with me reading a script that I really loved. This is incredible.” And seeing my character and who he was in the story, I was like, “This is one of the best opportunities I’ve had.” And I knew it was Apple TV+, so I thought it could be something really special. But also, I was like, “This is just really great writing. What was it about this project that made you want to sign on and do this? Was it the story itself? Was it the world-building? Was it this character, who feels very different from characters that you’ve played? Was it a combination of all those things?ĬOMMON: When I was reading the scripts for this season, I was like, “This is a world I never even thought about or imagined.” It was resonating with me as, “Man, this is something that people can see and think that these things could actually happen, or relate to it because it feels like what we’ve been getting from our government and the powers that be.” I really related to the story. Collider: You always play such interesting roles.
