Lily Santiago and Wilson Bethel Join Eric Bana in Yosemite Murder Series Untamed at Netf

Publish date: 2024-09-13

Netflix‘s upcoming limited series “Untamed” has added Lily Santiago and Wilson Bethel to its cast as series regulars.

Per the official logline, the mystery-thriller stars Eric Bana as Kyle Turner, “a special agent for the National Parks Service who works to enforce human law in nature’s vast wilderness. The investigation of a brutal death sends Turner on a collision course with the dark secrets within the park, and in his own past.” Sam Neill and Rosemarie Dewitt also star.

Santiago will play Naya Vasquez. Described as “an ambitious young, former Los Angeles cop, Vasquez is the newest addition to Yosemite’s ranger squad. She came to the park to find a new life with her 4-year-old son, Gael. Despite being a little green when it comes to a landscape like Yosemite, her strong will, astute investigative skills and big-city homicide techniques become useful tools in a murder that is distinctly human.”
