James R | On 18, Jun 2022
Jenna Coleman (The Serpent) and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (The Invisible Man) will star Wilderness, a thriller for Amazon Prime Video.
Based on BE Jones’ novel of the same name, the series will follow Liv (Coleman) and Will (Jackson-Cohen), a couple who seem to have it all: a rock-solid marriage; a glamorous new life in New York thousands of miles from their provincial hometown; and their whole lives still ahead of them. Until, that is, Liv learns about Will’s affair. Heartbreak is swiftly followed by another emotion: fury. Revenge is her only option, and when Will proposes a trip around America’s epic National Parks to give their relationship a fresh start, Liv knows just how to get it…
A twisted love story, where a dream holiday and a supposedly happily-ever-after quickly turns into a living nightmare, the series is directed by So Yong Kim (Lovesong). Kim also exec-produces alongside Elizabeth Kilgarriff and Marnie Dickens, with Firebird Pictures producing.
Filming for the series commences in June in the USA, Canada and UK, with the series launching on Prime Video next year.
