Created by The OA’s Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, the series will star Corrin as Darby Hart, “the amateur sleuth at the center of a murder mystery set at a secluded retreat”.
According to a synopsis from Deadline, Retreat is a “radical conceptualization of the whodunit” trope with a Gen-Z detective at the helm. “Darby and 11 other guests are invited by a reclusive billionaire to participate in a Retreat at a remote and dazzling location,” it states. “When one of the other guests is found dead, Darby must fight to prove it was murder against a tide of competing interests and before the killer takes another life.” Marling and Batmanglij, who also collaborated on the 2011 psychological drama Sound of My Voice and 2013 thriller The East,
