The Wilds season 2 is almost here, and if the first – and so far, only – the trailer is anything to go by, then the drama that unfurled over the show’s binge-watch-worthy first chapter “is only the beginning.” The second season of The Wilds premieres in less than a month.
The drama, which was created by Sarah Streicher and covers numerous timelines in a manner similar to that of the hit HBO series Yellowjackets, revolves around a group of teenage girls who have never met one another but have all signed up for the same young women’s empowerment retreat.
Their journey to improve their health, however, quickly turns into a nightmare when the plane that was intended to take them to Hawaii crashes into the ocean – and we find out that they are being forced to participate in a potentially lethal social experiment without their will.
After the conclusion of the first season, The Wilds season 2 will pick up with the young people continuing their fight for survival on an island that is only inhabited by guys.
In flashforwards, we will most likely see those fortunate enough to have survived the ordeal make an attempt to flee the “rescue” facility.
While we wait to find out what happens, we have compiled everything that we know about the upcoming episode of the Prime Video series, including its release date and cast, as well as the information that is currently available regarding the storyline. Take a look at it.
The Wilds Season 2 Release Date
The Wilds season 2 premiere on May 6, 2022, according to its official release date. On December 11, 2020, Amazon Prime Video received all ten episodes of season 1, therefore it is quite possible that season 2 will adhere to the same schedule and release all of the installments at the same time as the first season did.
The Wilds Season 2 Plot
The official summary for season 2 of The Wilds says: “A group of teenage girls who are stuck on a deserted island face a fight for their lives when they find out that they are part of an elaborate social experiment.
Season 2 adds more test subjects, a new island of teenage boys, who must also fight for their lives under the watchful eye of the experiment’s puppet master. This adds to the drama and keeps you guessing.”
Based on the trailer, it looks like Rachel is struggling with guilt over her sister’s assumed death and coming to terms with losing her arm in the shark attack, while some of the boys try to prove themselves by taking charge and challenging each other.
Oh, and there will also be a lot of topless rituals around the campfire. You know, normal things to do when you’re stuck on a remote island.
Elsewhere, Shelby and Toni’s secret relationship is likely to make the group tenser, as some of them start to worry that people are getting closer to each other in the camp. After seeing Shelby and Toni kissing among the trees in the clip, Martha asks Fatin, “Have you noticed any new vibes between some of these people?”
It’s not all drama and situations that could put your life in danger, though. In one teaser scene, the girls throw a birthday party on the beach, and in another, Fatin, who before the plane crash only cared about herself, asks, “What’s wrong with me?”
“You just care, that’s all,” Leah says in response. “I know, it’s disgusting,” she jokes.
In the trailer, some of the island girls talk to the island boys. In a flashforward, Leah tries to meet one of the male test subjects in their “rescue” facility.
Gretchen Klein is a cruel woman who is in charge of running the Dawn of Eve and Twilight of Adam trials. Only time will tell if the teams will fight each other or work together to get rid of her.
The Wilds Season 2 Cast
Fatin, Rachel, Martha, Dot, Shelby, Toni, and Leah will be played by Sophia Ali, Reign Edwards, Jenna Clause, Shannon Berry, Mia Healey, Erana James, and Sarah Pidgeon. Rachel Griffiths returns as Gretchen Klein.
Nora was killed in the season 1 finale of The Wilds while trying to save her twin sister Rachel from a shark, but she’ll likely be back for season 2. Without pre-crash memories, the trailer doesn’t show her returning. Given that the character worked with Gretchen in season 1, we wouldn’t be shocked if there’s more there.
The Wilds season 2 contains a lot of new actors, thanks to the all-boys survivor group.
Zack Calderon plays Rafael Garcia. Nicholas Coombe will play Josh Herbert. Aidan Laprete will play Henry Tanaka. Charles Alexander (Kirin O’Conner), Miles Gutierrez-Riley (Ivan Taylor), Reed Shannon (Scotty Simms), Tanner Ray Rook (Bo Leonard), and Alex Fitzalan (Seth Novak) star.
The Wilds produced 15 character posters this month. Look up.
