Untamed moves slowly at first, but the pace pays off once you realize how Turner’s story is as much of a mystery as the case he’s solving, and how people can turn out to be as savage as the wild. It’s this balance between inner turmoil and outer chaos, bolstered by A-plus performances from the cast, that elevates Untamed from your typical murder mystery. Untamed is also a picturesque show. Even in its wildest and goriest moments (and even if most of it was filmed in Canada, not Yosemite), it remains stunning to look at.
"If all it ultimately does is remind people, especially casting agents, how good these performers can be, then it’s done some good."
— Brian Tallerico
"Deeply layered and gripping, “Untamed” is a brilliant detective tale anchored by some of our worst human impulses. It is a story of pain, shame and the hope of redemption, even when there appears to be no way out."
— Aramide Tinubu
In the vast expanse of Yosemite National Park, a woman's death draws a federal agent into lawless terrain — where nature obeys no rules but its own.
Follows federal agent Kyle Turner (Eric Bana) as he investigates the death of an unknown woman in the Yosemite Valley.
If you don’t yet have a phobia of wildlife and wilderness, then this could be your origin story.
Because we all need reminding how terrifying the wild is.
