Production is officially underway on Netflix’s limited series Wayward (previously known as Tall Pines). The streamer showed off the first two photos featuring the thriller’s stars behind the scenes of the first episode of the eight-episode season.
“Wayward is a thriller set in a bucolic but sinister town that explores the insidious underbelly of the ‘troubled teen industry’ and the eternal struggle between one generation and the next,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. The limited series stars Oscar nominee Toni Collette (The Power), Patrick J. Adams (Suits), Patrick Gallagher (Big Sky), Alyvia Alyn Lind (Chucky), Josh Close (Killers Of The Flower Moon), and Sydney Topliffe (Davey & Jonesie’s Locker).
Canadian comedian Mae Martin created the series and serves as co-showrunner, executive producer, and star. “We are deep in the bizarre world of Wayward, and I am so excited to show everyone what we’ve been making — what a cast!” said Martin in an interview with Tudum. “I hope this show ignites the rebellious teenagers that exist in all of us. And, most importantly, let’s acknowledge that my hair is now several shades darker than previously, indicating that I am now, in fact, a serious actor.”
Ryan Scott is the co-showrunner and executive produces along with Martin, Ben Farrell, Hannah Mackay, Jennifer Kawaja, and Bruno Dubé. The series is produced by Sphere Media, with executive producer Euros Lyn, Renuka Jeyapalan, and John Fawcett directing.
Filming is now underway in Toronto. Netflix hasn’t announced a target premiere date.
