While I wasn’t a big fan of Wolf Creek, I simply adored Wolf Creek 2. Now we’re getting another chance to head to the Outback, but this time things are a bit different.
Australia’s 9 News is reporting that the Outback horror survival tale Wolf Creek is set to continue on the small screen with subscription video-on-demand service Stan announcing it has signed a production development deal for a six-part series.
John Jarratt, who plays the frightening antagonist of the Wolf Creek films, will reprise his role as the villain Mick Taylor in the series, which is currently in development.
The Wolf Creek series is being developed by director, writer, and producer Greg McLean, who was behind the first and second Wolf Creek films. It is understood the series will take place after the events of Wolf Creek 2.
The former Underbelly team of writer Felicity Packard, writer and producer Peter Gawler, and executive producer Greg Haddrick are also attached to the project. The series is being produced by Screentime and Emu Creek Pictures.
“Wolf Creek and the character of Mick Taylor have become household names, and the opportunity to tell a rich and complex story in his world in a high-quality drama series is a thrilling creative opportunity,” Emu Creek Pictures CEO McLean said.
