A fresh take on The Terminal List universe, shifting the spotlight to the original series' main bad guy Ben Edwards (Taylor Kitsch) and making him the protagonist. Who are we kidding, it's hard not to like Kitsch in anything, even when he's playing the bad guy. Without giving away spoilers, Ben's story takes an unexpected turn after a SEAL mission goes sideways, forcing him into a more clandestine role that plays perfectly to his skillset. The first episode does a great job setting this up and establishes Dark Wolf as a completely different beast than Chris Pratt's Terminal List, which was an excellent series. Performances and pacing are spot on. No filler, no dragged-out exposition, easy pitfalls for prequels and military ops thrillers. Tight storytelling from start to finish. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
