What a year it’s been for Rebecca Ferguson, who starred in several big projects during the first half of the year, like Mercy (co-starring Chris Pratt) and The Magic Faraway Tree (co-starring Andrew Garfield). The former may have bombed at the box office under the weight of its bloated $60 million budget, but it went on to become one of the most-watched movies of the year on Prime Video — most fans agree it had the feel of a streaming movie anyway. Ferguson is set to return to the sci-fi genre later this year when she reprises her role as Lady Jessica in Dune: Part Three, which opens in theaters on December 18. However, she has confirmed she will only have one scene in the sequel, a far cry from her leading role fans have become accustomed to in the first two films.

Before Ferguson returns to Arrakis for the third and final chapter in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi saga, she has another sci-fi hit dominating streaming right now. Ferguson stars in the lead role of Juliette Nichols in Silo, the Apple TV sci-fi series that finally returned this year for Season 3 after going on hiatus for two years. Silo is in the heat of its third season, and the show has been a consistent performer on Apple TV watchlists, migrating between the #1 and #3 spots since its premiere a few weeks ago. The show is the perfect blend of Fallout and Snowpiercer, as it’s set in an eerie dystopian world and follows a group of people living in a bunker (or a vault) with little clue as to what’s happening outside their small bubble.
