Jessica Gunning, the breakout star of Netflix's "Baby Reindeer," is set to return to the streaming platform for a new dark comedy series called "Feral." The project is an adaptation of Shirley Conran's 1987 novel of the same name. Gunning will play the role of Annie, a woman who sacrifices her own ambitions to raise four sons under the control of her strict husband, Duncan.

The series will follow four women as they learn to survive and collaborate on a dangerous tropical island following their mining executive husbands' kidnapping.

Jude Mack, known for producing the shorts "Amicable" and "Bury Your Gays," is the creator of "Feral." Mack recently joined the cast of "Ted Lasso" Season 4 as the new goalie. The series is scheduled to be directed by Emma Freeman, who joins the show as the new goalie for "Ted Lasso" Season 4. The production is set to be brought to life by Oscar nominee Liza Marshall, who will also serve as a producer alongside Laurie Borg.
