We had the pleasure of speaking to actor and producer Hunter Doohan (Wednesday, Your Honor) to talk about his powerful new film The Wilderness, where he plays Ed — a young man navigating the brutal realities of wilderness therapy.
In this exclusive interview, Hunter opens up about how Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul brought him onto the project. The true stories that inspired The Wilderness. His transition from Netflix’s hit Wednesday to a more grounded, emotional indie drama, & taking on dual roles as both actor and producer. He also tells us what it’s really like filming deep in the Utah desert, while we couldn’t help but ask about his upcoming Evil Dead project and stepping into true horror.
