What is going to surprise fans about where you take the story in season 2?

Her mind, we always talk about it as this double-edged sword.

It’s so powerful but it can also be a liability.

But it’s not that.

That’s going to be the big talking point.

The series has such a passionate fanbase on social media shout-out to the #Shoni fans!

In my mind, as writers, our job is to build in a vacuum.

That goes for, by the way, even executives who have different ideas.

You just have to always hold on to the idea of why you’re writing the story.

The Wildsseason 2 premieres Friday, May 6, on Amazon Prime Video.
