Detective work demands sharp attention to detail, but when a crime unfolds across a vast wilderness, the challenge deepens. Netflix’s gripping limited series Untamed, penned by Mark L. Smith and Elle Smith, explores this premise with haunting intensity. Set against the breathtaking yet isolating backdrop of Yosemite National Park, the mystery-thriller stars Eric Bana as Kyle Turner, a relentless special agent with the National Park Service’s Investigative Services Branch (ISB). When a body is found within the park’s sprawling one million acres, Turner launches a relentless investigation, uncovering hidden secrets and old wounds. Gritty, emotional, and unsettling, Untamed delves into the darker sides of human nature, revealing how primal we can become when pushed to the edge.
