The six-part series from César Award-nominated creator and director Cédric Anger stars Benoît Magimel and Mélanie Laurent

Today, Apple TV+ shared a first look at "The Hunt" ("Traqués"), formerly known as "A l'ombre des forêts," the upcoming French-language thriller from César Award-nominated creator and director Cédric Anger ("Next Time I'll Aim for the Heart") and executive producers Isabelle Degeorges, Clémentine Vaudaux, Alexis Barqueiro and Sidonie Dumas for Gaumont ("Lupin," "Becoming Karl Lagerfeld," "Totems"). The chilling drama stars Cannes Best Actor and three-time César Award winner Benoît Magimel ("Pacifiction," "De son vivant") and two-time César Award winner Mélanie Laurent ("Inglourious Basterds," "Wingwomen"). "The Hunt" ("Traqués") will make its global debut on Apple TV+ on December 3, 2025, with the first two episodes, followed by one episode weekly, every Wednesday through December 31, 2025.

Franck (Magimel) and his longtime friends enjoy spending their weekends hunting together, but one Sunday, they come across another group of hunters who start targeting them without explanation. When one of their party is shot, Franck's friends strike back, sending an attacker to the ground. Barely managing to escape, the four friends keep the event a secret. Franck tries to go back to his life as usual alongside his wife, Krystel (Laurent), but in the next few days, he starts to feel like he and his friends are being watched, or worse, tracked by hunters who are now hell-bent on revenge.

In addition to Magimel and Laurent, "The Hunt" ("Traqués") stars Damien Bonnard, Manuel Guillot, Cédric Appietto, Angelyna Danabe Mignot, Paul Beaurepaire, Yann Goven, Sarah Pachoud and Patrick de Vallette.

"The Hunt" ("Traqués") is created and directed by Anger. The series is produced by the studio Gaumont, and executive produced by Degeorges, Vaudaux, Barqueiro and Dumas through Gaumont.

The series is the latest in French programming from Apple TV+, which also includes the International Emmy Award-winning Best Drama "Drops of God," a multilingual French-Japanese series starring Fleur Geffrier and Tomohisa Yamashita, renewed for a second season; "Carême," the thrilling story of the world's first celebrity chef, Antonin Carême, starring Benjamin Voisin; and "Liaison," a high-stakes, contemporary thriller exploring how the mistakes of our past have the potential to destroy our future, starring Vincent Cassel and Eva Green.
