Amazon Prime Video has dropped the teaser of its upcoming original series ’Wilderness’ and its one twisted love story where a dream holiday and a supposedly “happily-ever-after” quickly turn into a living nightmare. Written and created by BAFTA Breakthrough Brit Marnie Dickens and based on B.E. Jones’ novel of the same name, ‘Wilderness’ will launch globally only on Amazon Prime Video on 15th September, 2023.
‘Wilderness’ revolves around British couple Liv (Jenna Coleman) and Will (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) who seem to have it all. A rock-solid marriage. A glamorous new life in New York. A golden future stretching ahead of them. Until Liv learns about the affair. Heartbreak is swiftly followed by another emotion: fury. Enter the American road trip Liv’s fantasised about since she was little, from Monument Valley to the Grand Canyon, on through Yosemite, ending up with a hedonistic weekend in Las Vegas to blow off the dust and sweat. For Will, it’s a chance to make amends, for Liv, it’s a very different prospect—a landscape where accidents happen all the time. The perfect place to get revenge.
Whilst in the epic American National Parks, the couple bump into Will’s colleague Cara (Ashley Benson) a young American woman with a glittering career and an adoring boyfriend, Garth (Eric Balfour). Liv’s best-laid plans are wrecked and, as the foursome go hiking together, Cara and Garth soon find themselves enmeshed in Will and Liv’s lives in a way that will change the course of all their future’s forever.
‘Wilderness’ is a psychological thriller series created by Marnie Dickens, directed by So Yong Kim and executive produced by Elizabeth Kilgarriff. ‘Wilderness’ will premiere globally on Amazon Prime Video on 15th September, 2023.
