Netflix Launches Mystery Thriller Untamed Starring Eric Bana, Sam Neill

Netflix is set to release "Untamed," a six-episode mystery thriller starring Eric Bana as Kyle Turner, a National Parks Service agent investigating a brutal death in Yosemite National Park that intertwines with his own past. The series, co-produced by Bana and featuring Sam Neill among the cast, will premiere on July 17, 2025, and promises a character-driven story reminiscent of shows like "True Detective" and "Yellowstone." Eric Bana marks his major TV return after six years with this role, adding to his diverse career spanning film and voice acting. Meanwhile, Netflix has also seen renewed success with the 1995 psychological thriller "Copycat," starring Sigourney Weaver as a criminal psychologist drawn into a deadly game with a serial killer. The film, praised for its tense cat-and-mouse narrative and strong performances, currently ranks in Netflix's Top 10 in the U.S. and internationally, highlighting the enduring appeal of classic thrillers on streaming platforms. Both "Untamed" and "Copycat" underscore Netflix's strategy of blending new original content with celebrated older films to attract diverse audiences.
