Directed by Greg McLean (“La Brea,” “Wolf Creek”), the show is a joint production between Easy Tiger and Ronde. It is created by Tim Lee (“Mystery Road,” “Bump”) and Ben Davies; executive produced by Ben Davies (“Bondi Rescue,” “The First Inventors,” “Outback Ringer”), Rob Gibson and Ian Collie (“The Twelve,” “Jack Irish,” “Colin from Accounts”); produced by Paul Ranford (“Stateless,” “True History of the Kelly Gang”).
