Based on a book by B.E. Jones, Wilderness follows Coleman's Liv who embarks on a road trip of American National Parks with her husband... shortly after discovering that he's cheating on her.

What follows is a tense revenge thriller as Liv tests her husband and plots payback over the course of their voyage, with accidental rendezvous with the mistress just complicating the proceedings.

If that plot piques your interest, here's how to watch Wilderness so you can catch the new streaming show.

How to watch Wilderness

Wilderness is streaming exclusively on Prime Video, due to it being an original for Amazon's streaming service, so you'll need to be signed up in order to catch the new show.

All six episodes of Wilderness drop at the same time, on Friday, September 15, so you'll be able to binge the entirety of the show at once if you so choose.

Prime Video is one of the perks of an Amazon Prime subscription. It costs $14.99 / £8.99 per month or $139 / £95 per year to sign up to Prime, and doing so gets you a few benefits beyond Prime Video: there's next-day shopping on the massive online store, Prime Reading, Amazon Music, Prime Gaming, Deliveroo Plus and more.

How to read Wilderness

If you've watched Wilderness and want to catch up on the book it's based on, or want to read the novel before checking out the TV show, you can. The TV show is based on the same-titled story by B.E. or Beverly Jones, and it's easy to buy online.

The book of Wilderness came out in 2021 and it's 320 pages long. You can buy it online in audiobook, Kindle and paperback formats on Amazon here.
