UNTAMED is a character-driven mystery thriller that follows Kyle Turner, a special agent in an elite branch of the National Parks Service who works to enforce human law in nature’s vast wilderness. The investigation of a brutal death sends Turner on a collision course with the dark secrets within the park, and in his own past.
As seen below, Turner is accompanied on his investigation by Naya Vasquez (Lily Santiago), a rookie park ranger more accustomed to city life than to the wilds of Yosemite. “Because Vasquez is new to the park, we get to see the park through her eyes,” co-showrunner Elle Smith tells Tudum. “We get to understand what this job is, and see the beauty of the park, but also the dangers.”
The cast of UNTAMED includes:
Eric Bana (Black Hawk Down, Troy) as Kyle Turner, a special agent for the National Park Service Investigative Services Branch (ISB) who works to enforce human law in nature’s vast territories.
Sam Neill (Jurassic Park, Apples Never Fall) as Paul Souter, who’s been the chief park ranger in Yosemite for half his life. He’s a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, and friend to Turner. He’s comfortable in all facets of his job, whether dealing with crime inside the park or the bureaucracy around it.
Rosemarie DeWitt (La La Land, The Staircase) as Jill Bodwin, Turner’s ex-wife. A former teacher and park counselor, Jill remarried a few years after their divorce. Despite the fracturing of their marriage, Jill and Turner maintain a strong bond, held together by events from their past.
