[edit]

On 28 August 2020, Amazon Studios announced Jungle, a grime and drill hip hop drama series. The series was created and is executive produced by Junior Okoli and Chas Appeti, under their production company Nothing Lost.[5] Appeti previously directed music videos for UK hip hop artists, such as Tinchy Stryder, Chip, and Giggs, and Okoli was a music manager.[2] The two made a self-funded pilot episode, and began shopping it around to production companies, with Amazon Studios coming onboard.[3]

The cast is made up mostly of UK rap and drill artists, including Tinie Tempah, Big Narstie, Unknown T, Jordan McCann, Jaykae, IAMDDB, Double Lz, Poundz, and M24.[1][2][3] The series was filmed in London over eight weeks, beginning in April 2021.[3]

## Release

A teaser for the series was released on 12 August 2022.[1] All six episodes premiered on Prime Video on 30 September 2022.[6]
