Meet George Ferrier, who plays Brad on Netflix’s The Hunting Wives
The young New Zealand actor was also in Peacock’s One Of Us Is Lying and earned praise for his role in Juniper, alongside Charlotte Rampling
Netflix’s latest drama series, The Hunting Wives, is an adaptation of author May Cobb’s 2021 thriller novel. The show is set in the fictional town of Maple Brook in East Texas, where Sophie O’Neil (Brittany Snow) befriends socialite Margo Banks (Malin Akerman) and her clique of housewives.
Filled with booze, affairs and murders, the show has made headlines for being “bonkers” and “deliciously trashy”. One scandalous plotline in the show revolves around Margo and her affair with her friend’s 18-year-old son Brad, played by actor George Ferrier.
Fans are eagerly speculating on the possibilities of a second season with the finale of The Hunting Wives culminating in a shocking cliffhanger, where it’s discovered that (spoiler!) Margo killed Brad’s girlfriend, Abby. But what do we know about the actor who plays Margo’s completely inappropriate boy toy? Here’s everything you need to know about The Hunting Wives actor George Ferrier.
