Filming began in April 2022 with filming scheduled in Vancouver, Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and New York;[3] additional filming also took place in the U.K. Dickens was quoted as saying “Wilderness is pure, unadulterated fun, where our heroine Liv says the things you wish you had the guts to, does the things you can only fantasise about, and lives by her own increasingly outrageous set of rules. I'm thrilled to bring the Prime Video audience along for her ride.” Director So Yong Kim executive produced alongside Dickens and Elizabeth Kilgarriff for Firebird Pictures. Lead actress Coleman said, “I'm very much looking forward to getting on the road, into the wilderness and the depths beyond. Working alongside Oliver, we will be exploring the boundaries of a relationship that is tested in unimaginable ways and in the hands of the wonderful So Yong Kim, Marnie Dickens, and Liz Kilgarriff at Firebird Pictures. I know this is going to make for an extraordinary trip.”[4] In July 2022, Ashley Benson, Eric Balfour, Marsha Stephanie Blake and Morgana Van Peebles were announced as added to the cast.[5]
