HBO is eyeing another western. The premium cable network that aired Deadwood a decade ago is developing a new hourlong Wild West set drama from director Peter Berg. Titled Untamed, the project follows three mismatched travelers as they set out on a treacherous trek from 1840s Wyoming across the Rocky Mountains to Utah. Along the way, they’re forced to embrace some of their most primitive instincts — both good and bad — to survive. Berg will direct the drama, with Mark L. Smith on board to pen the script. Both will serve as executive producers, and Alissa Bachner will co-produce.
