Now playing on Prime Video is the second season of its thrilling YA series, The Wilds, where the girls remain trapped on a mysterious island, as well as the boy castaways who join this dystopian slumber party.
Prime Video revealed the second season of the thrilling YA series, The Wilds, will premiere Friday, May 6 exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. First-look images from Season Two were also released today, giving a sneak peek at the even higher stakes the girls face as they remain trapped on a mysterious island, as well as never-before-seen images of the boy castaways who join this dystopian slumber party in the second season.
Season two of The Wilds will continue to follow the harrowing ordeal of a group of teenage girls stranded on a deserted island, and they didn’t end up there by accident—they’ve secretly been recruited into an elaborate social experiment. The new season ratchets up the drama by revealing that the girls aren’t the only ones being studied… there’s a new set of subjects, an island of teenage boys, who must also fight for survival under the watchful eye of the experiment’s puppet master.
Coming back are Sarah Pidgeon (Leah), Sophia Ali (Fatin), Jenna Clause (Martha), Reign Edwards (Rachel), Mia Healey (Shelby), Shannon Berry (Dot), Helena Howard (Nora) and Erana James (Toni). New cast members include Zack Calderon, Aidan Laprete, Nicholas Coombe, Charles Alexander, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Reed Shannon, Tanner Ray Rook and Alex Fitzalan, who make up 'The Twilight Of Adam' group.
Blackfilmandtv.com’s Wilson Morales spoke with Pidgeon, who plays Leah and Edwards, who plays Rachel, on what to expect in Season 2. While this Pidgeon’s first big role, Edwards is known for her three-year stint as Nicole Avant on The Bold and The Beautiful, which earned her three Emmy Award nominations, and her recurring on the hit FX series Snowfall.
