The popular Netflix crime drama Untamed has been renewed for a second season, the streaming service has announced. The star, Eric Bana, is confirmed to return as agent Kyle Turner. However, the next chapter in Turner’s story will see him leave his comfort zone, departing from the familiar landscapes of Yosemite National Park for a completely new, and unknown, location.
The decision to move the setting was a deliberate one by the series creators. They explained that after the emotionally draining case of Season 1, Turner needed to get away. The new location will serve as both a fresh start and a profound challenge for the character. Unlike Yosemite, where he knew every trail and trick, the new national park will force Turner to rely on different skills and navigate an environment where he is not the resident expert.
The actor, Bana, shared his enthusiasm for the show’s return, stating that the overwhelming response to the first season was a “testament to the incredible effort by our crew.” He is excited to dive back into the character of Kyle Turner, who will face new struggles and an all-new mystery tailored specifically to the new environment. The creators emphasized that each national park possesses its own distinct identity, which will directly influence the new case.
As for the returning cast, details remain scarce. While the creators expressed their love for the Season 1 cast, no definitive announcements have been made regarding their return. Viewers can, however, anticipate a fresh ensemble of supporting characters in the new setting. This new cast will be central to the mystery, and their interactions with Turner will be crucial to the season’s plot, ensuring a completely new dynamic.
