Wilderness plot

Coleman's new show tells the story of a seemingly happy couple Liv (Coleman) and Will, who have the perfect life: A solid marriage, a new home in New York and a seemingly bright future ahead of them until Liv learns that Will is having an affair.

At first she is devastated but soon she becomes angry, and this prompts her to come up with an elaborate plan to get revenge.

Liv and Will have already planned the perfect American road trip, that takes them from Monument Valley to the Grand Canyon, and ending in Las Vegas, but what was once the source of much joy has become the centre of Liv's plans to get revenge because many accidents could happen along the way.

However, when Liv and Will meet his colleague Cara and her boyfriend Garth in the American Notional Parks Liv's plans hit a roadblock because the four decide to travel together. Their journey will take them to very different places, and will ultimately change the course of their lives for good.

Executive producer Marnie Dickens said of the drama: "Who doesn’t know someone who’s been cheated on? That gut punch on discovery, the trail of paranoia and suspicion it leaves behind, the difficulty of trusting again. It’s enough to tip anyone over the edge.

"And that’s where we meet our heroine, Liv, as she’s lied to over and over by the man she loves. Of course she wants revenge, and I, for one, hope she gets it.”

Wilderness cast

As mentioned, Coleman leads the cast and she is joined by Oliver Jackson-Cohen, who plays Liv's husband Will, Ashley Benson as Cara and Eric Balfour as Garth.

Other cast members include Claire Rushbrook as Caryl; Marsha Stephanie Blake as Detective Rawlins; Morgana Van Peebles as Ash; Jonathan Keltz as Detective Wiseman; and Talia Balsam as Bonnie.

Wilderness trailer

"How far is too far to get revenge?" That's the question posed in the tense trailer for Wilderness, which focuses on Coleman's character as she devises her revenge plot.

A separate teaser trailer, soundtracked by Taylor Swift's Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor's Version), gives another tantalising look at the series.
