In an interview at San Diego Comic-Con, Yaga star Noah Reid revealed that fans can expect a fresh, unexpected side of co-star Hudson Williams in the upcoming thriller series. Describing Williams as a dedicated actor and “cinephile,” Reid promised the role will highlight a new depth to his performance.
Based on showrunner Kat Sandler’s original play and inspired by the Slavic folktale of Baba Yaga, the series follows a private investigator (Reid) searching for a missing young heir (Williams). The show is described as a “propulsive, sexy, funny, and dark” mystery that keeps viewers on their toes.
