Amazon's "The Wilds" Cast: Meet the Characters and Who Plays Them P. Claire Dodson The Wilds is officially here, and the survival thriller slash coming-of-age story has a lot to unpack: namely, why and how did this group of teen girls end up stranded on a deserted island? And will they survive it? The show, out December 11 on Amazon Prime Video, focuses on eight main characters — which, yes, is a lot — but that number means we get eight well-rounded women leads, each with her own detailed backstory and deep-dive character development. Created by Sarah Streicher ( Daredevil) and executive produced by Amy B. Harris
