There’s a lot to love aboutThe Wilds, but there’s no denying that a key contributor to the new Amazon series becoming a runaway hit is the pitch-perfect ensemble. And when you fall for a cast this hard, there’s nothing more delightful than an F-bomb filled blooper reel!
The show focuses on a group of teenage girls heading off to a retreat in Hawaii. Mid-flight, their plane goes down leaving them stranded on a deserted island.The Wildsdelivers big when it comes to the survival component of the show, but bringing that material to the next level is the time taken to flesh out the lead characters in an effort to show why they wound up there and how their past experiences influence their present behavior.
We’ll be here all day if I start highlighting whatMia Healey,Erana James,Sarah Pidgeon,Reign Edwards,Helena Howard,Shannon Berry,Sophia AliandJenna Clausebring to the show as individuals, so instead I’ll take a moment to emphasize the undeniable cast chemistry, and how that enhanced the show and transcended the screen as well. Be warned, once you startThe Wildsit’ll be tough to stop, so I might recommend carving out the necessary time to binge all 10 episodes of Season 1.
In addition to quickly sparking that connection between cast and viewers in the show itself, the group is also making the most ofThe Wilds’ success by frequently sharing behind-the-scenes photos and engaging with fans on social media. Yes, we know thatThe WildsSeason 2 is on the way, but given where Season 1 leaves us, the extra connectivity on social media is much appreciated as we wait to learn more about what’s really happening to these characters.
