Lionsgate Television’s The Hunting Wives, based on May Cobb’s novel, has set a July 21, 2025 premiere date on Netflix. The trailer just dropped ahead of the series’ premiere and shows the two main characters bonding over recreational drugs, men, and murder.
Malin Akerman stars as Margo Banks and Brittany Snow plays Sophie O’Neil. The eight-episode season also stars Dermot Mulroney as Jed Banks, Chrissy Metz as Starr Jackson, Jaime Ray Newman as Callie Baskin, and Evan Jonigkeit as Graham O’Neil. George Ferrier plays Brad Thompson and Katie Lowes is Jill Thompson.
“The Hunting Wives is a sexy drama that follows newcomer Sophie O’Neil (Snow) as she becomes entranced with Margo Banks (Åkerman), a seductive socialite, and her exclusive circle of affluent girlfriends, known as the Hunting Wives, in a small East Texas town,” reads Lionsgate Television’s synopsis. “Underneath the Southern charm lies a world of temptation and dangerous liaisons. Margo’s magnetic charm and the group’s intoxicating allure awaken Sophie’s dormant passions, leading her down a treacherous path lined with jealousy, deadly suspicion, and murder.”
Rebecca Cutter (Hightown) serves as showrunner, executive producer, and writer. Additional executive producers include author May Cobb and Erwin Stoff. Directors include Julie Anne Robinson, Melanie Mayron, Cheryl Dunye, and Jennifer Getzinger.
