“We have to lure them out of the woods.” Apple TV has revealed their official trailer for a gripping French thriller series titled The Hunt, also known as Traqués in French, made by famous production company Gaumont in France. Not to be confused with either the Danish film called The Hunt with Mads Mikkelsen or the controversial American film The Hunt from a few years ago. But just as unsettling as those films. Franck and his buddies enjoy going on hunting trips. One day, they encounter another hunting group who strangely targets them. In self-defense, Franck’s group injures one of the attackers. But paranoia sets in as they return home and try to forget the incident – but the start to feel hunted by now vengeful enemies after them. “The most dangerous enemy is the one you can’t see.” Starring Benoît Magimel and Mélanie Laurent, pluds Damien Bonnard, Manuel Guillot, Cédric Appietto, Angelyna Danabe-Mignot, Sarah Pachoud, Yann Goven, Paul Beaurepaire, and Patrick De Vallette. This reminds me of that Netflix series “Beef” where a random occurrence turns into something bigger that destroys everyone’s lives. Looks just as crazy.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Cédric Anger’s thriller series The Hunt, direct from YouTube:

Franck (Benoît 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, they keep the event a secret. Franck tries to go back to his life as usual alongside his wife Krystel (Mélanie 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. The Hunt, also titled Traqués (meaning Hunted) in French, is a series created & written & directed entirely by French writer / filmmaker Cédric Anger, director of the films The Killer, The Counsel, Next Time I’ll Aim for the Heart, and Paris Pigalle previously. Produced by Isabelle Degeorges; made by the studio Gaumont. Executive produced by Sidonie Dumas, Isabelle Degeorges, Clémentine Vaudaux, and Alexis Barqueiro at Gaumont. Apple releases Anger’s The Hunt series streaming on Apple TV+ starting December 3rd, 2025 coming soon. Interested?
