While Untamed is set in California, production took place much farther north — in the wilderness of British Columbia, per the Los Angeles Times. Co-showrunner Elle Smith credited Bana’s passion for the outdoors with helping the cast and crew push through the challenging shoot.

While several signature landmarks of Yosemite National Park are seen throughout Untamed, the Netflix series was not filmed in California or the U.S.

The actor stars alongside Sam Neill and Rosemarie DeWitt as a prickly investigator in a series set in the national park, where the beautiful wilderness plays host to ugly crimes.
