Prime Video’s latest thriller, Wilderness, starring Jenna Coleman, portrays a stay-at-home wife who has reached the end of her tether due to her husband’s lying and cheating. This frustration drives her to devise a revenge plan that spirals out of control, illustrating the repercussions of seeking revenge and how swiftly these situations can deteriorate. Coleman has demonstrated her versatility and emotional depth in roles such as Clara Oswald in Doctor Who and in portraying a more accurate Constantine in The Sandman. Now, she brings further authenticity and nuance to her performance as Olivia Taylor.Olivia, also known as Liv, left her job and life to move across the ocean for her husband Will’s new job. This sees Liv staying home most of the time and trying to finish her book. However, one night, when Will returns home from a work trip, Liv accidentally sees a spicy message sent to Will from someone else. This leads her to confront him, and when he confesses, naturally, she is furious and hurt. Will then tries to salvage their marriage by planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip. Still, of course, it doesn’t end well, with Liv finding out he was lying, and he kept cheating on her with his colleague. These events push Liv to enact a plan for revenge, plotting to kill him when they are on the trip. As a thriller, the series maintains itself as a fun watch by keeping audiences on their toes and delivering jaw-dropping twits. However, it doesn’t share the complexity of thrillers such as Full Circle, which constantly throws in twists, revealing more about its interconnected characters. It doesn’t take as many risks but still sticks the landing as a high-stakes revenge story.Throughout the series, connections are drawn between nature and the process of exacting revenge and these connections manifest in various elements of the show. They are initially evident in the illustrations featured in the opening credits, which mimic naturalist drawings of different predators capturing and consuming their prey, like a heron devouring a frog. Additionally, comparisons are made by Liv in the voice-overs at the start of each episode. In Season 1, Episode 2, “The Other Woman,” her voice-over characterizes revenge as hunter vs. prey, a theme the series appears to embrace. When Liv discovers, for the second time, that Will is still cheating on her, she devises a plan to use the trip as a guise for her revenge, which is to murder him in the wilderness, so she wouldn’t have to watch him move on without her.RELATED: Jamie Foxx and Tommy Lee Jones Fight for Justice in The Burial Trailer
