The hit Netflix series Untamed is officially returning for a second season, the streaming giant has announced. The star of the show, Eric Bana, is confirmed to be reprising his role as ISB agent Kyle Turner. In a major plot development, the new season will see Turner move to a new national park, leaving the familiar trails of Yosemite behind for good.
The series’ creators revealed that the new location is at the heart of the new season’s narrative. The emotionally and professionally taxing conclusion of Season 1 left Turner in need of a change of scenery. The new park will serve as a fresh start, but also as a formidable challenge. The creators said that they are intentionally putting Turner on his “back foot,” making him “very uncomfortable” and allowing for new growth.
The actor, Eric Bana, expressed his deep satisfaction with the show’s renewal. He noted that the audience’s positive reaction to the first season made the renewal all the more rewarding. The star is eager to see what challenges the new season holds for his character. The creators assured that the new mystery will be perfectly suited to the new environment, ensuring the plot feels fresh and not a mere repetition of the first season.
As for the returning cast, no official announcements have been made. The creators mentioned they would love to bring back some of the original actors, but logistical details are still being worked out. Viewers can, however, expect a new cast of supporting characters to be introduced in the new setting. These new faces will be integral to the unfolding story, providing both new allies and new antagonists for Turner to deal with.
