TV Trailers of the Week: Lucky, Silo: Season 3 and More
📺 Take a peek at some of the latest trailers for upcoming TV shows.
📺 “Lucky” Trailer: Anya Taylor-Joy Goes on the Run in Apple’s New Crime Thriller Series with Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Drew Starkey & Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor — Premiering Wed, July 15th on Apple TV
When your entire world gets turned upside down and you no longer know which way is forward, survival can start to feel like random chance. Maybe even a little luck just to make it through the day. But when you’ve spent your entire life preparing for disasters like this, luck eventually stops being part of the equation. That’s when instinct takes over.
And judging by this official trailer for Lucky, Anya Taylor-Joy’s newest role involves plenty of running, lying, fighting, and knowing exactly when to weaponize charm and sympathy to stay alive.
In the upcoming Apple original crime-thriller series, the Furiosa and Dune star leans into her elegant beauty and steely resolve as Luciana “Lucky” Armstrong, a highly skilled con artist whose carefully managed life implodes after a multimillion-dollar heist goes catastrophically wrong. Suddenly, she’s on the run with federal agents closing in from one direction and a ruthless crime boss, played by iconic actress Annette Bening, hunting her from the other.
From there, things spiral fast. As the walls close in, Lucky is forced to rely on every trick she has left: deception, manipulation, survival instincts, old connections, and whatever pieces remain of the identity she’s spent years building. The trailer leans hard into cat-and-mouse tension, last-minute disguises, close calls, and a little fake crying to get what she wants. After all, when your back is against the wall, leaning into people’s sympathy isn’t only useful... it’s survival.
Joining Taylor-Joy is a strong supporting lineup that includes Timothy Olyphant as Lucky’s veteran con artist father and Drew Starkey as Lucky’s boyfriend and partner in crime, who mysteriously goes missing along with a large stash of money when the proverbial shit hits the fan, igniting a chain of chaotic events.
Annette Bening plays the powerful crime boss hunting down Lucky in an attempt to retrieve her stolen cash. She is also the mother of Lucky’s missing boyfriend.
Meanwhile, King Richard breakout Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor costars as the tenacious FBI Agent Billie Rand, hot on Lucky’s trail, while Clifton Collins Jr., William Fichtner, and Eric Lange round out the cast.
Created by Jonathan Tropper, of Banshee, Your Friends & Neighbors, and Warrior, and based on Marissa Stapley’s bestselling novel, the upcoming series appears to blend crime drama, action-thriller momentum, and cat-and-mouse tension in a way that seems perfectly suited for someone of Anya Taylor-Joy’s caliber, especially since she has already proved she can be both absolutely ferocious in Furiosa and effortlessly magnetic in The Queen’s Gambit.
Lucky premieres Wednesday, July 15th on Apple TV.
📺 “Silo: Season 3” Trailer: Rebecca Ferguson Searches for the Truth Behind Apple’s Acclaimed Dystopian Sci-Fi Mystery with Jessica Henwick, Colin Hanks, Steve Zahn, Rick Gomez and More — Premiering Friday, July 3rd on Apple TV
Imagine this: a dystopian world where people are forced to live underground in massive silos because the air outside has become so toxic that stepping outside means instant death. But what if the people in charge have been lying? What if the real reason no one is allowed to leave has less to do with survival and more to do with control?
That’s the fascinating hook behind Silo, Apple’s terrific sci-fi mystery series based on Hugh Howey’s bestselling book trilogy. And with Season 3 arriving this July, the show appears ready to widen the scope in a major way, moving beyond the question of what’s outside and digging into how this whole nightmare began in the first place.
Rebecca Ferguson returns as Juliette Nichols, the stubborn, brilliant engineer who has spent the series pulling at every loose wire in the system until the entire underground society starts to short-circuit. After surviving her forced “cleaning” and discovering that the world beyond her own silo is far more complicated than she was ever told, Juliette now finds herself caught between buried truths, broken memories, and an increasingly fractured community still reeling from rebellion.
Season 3 will continue the present-day story inside the silo as the survivors try to recover from social turmoil while facing a new threat that could push their fragile society even closer to collapse. But the season also jumps back centuries earlier to the so-called “Before Times,” where D.C. journalist Helen Drew, played by Glass Onion’s Jessica Henwick, and Congressman Daniel Keene, played by Succession’s Ashley Zukerman, begin uncovering a conspiracy with catastrophic consequences.
That dual timeline might feel like a big swing. But Season 3 seems ready to pull back the curtain on the origin story of the silos and the carefully built secrecy that surrounds them, tracing the moment when civilization above ground started falling apart and the future of humanity was sealed underground.
Among those returning this season are Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, Alexandria Riley, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Rick Gomez, Billy Postlethwaite, and Clare Perkins. New additions include Laura Innes, Jessica Brown Findlay, Morven Christie, Reed Birney, Matt Craven, and Colin Hanks in a recurring role. Steve Zahn is also set to return as Jimmy “Solo” Conroy, the only living survivor of the rebellion in Silo 17.
Executive produced by showrunner Graham Yost, of Justified and Speed fame, Silo has turned Howey’s dystopian world into one of Apple’s most gripping slow-burn sci-fi dramas to date. And if the Season 3 trailer is any indication, this season won’t just ask what happened to the world. It’s going to ask who helped bury the truth in the first place.
Silo: Season 3 premieres Friday, July 3rd on Apple TV.
