Maya Hawke is set to star in the Netflix series “The God of the Woods.”

Variety exclusively reported that the show had been picked up at Netflix back in December. It is based on the novel of the same name by Liz Moore.

Per the official logline, the show is described as a “multi-generational drama series set in the Adirondacks, exploring the Van Laar family’s dark secrets, class tensions, and the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of 13 year old Barbara Van Laar from her family’s summer camp—in the wake of an earlier family tragedy that may be related. As the past and present collide, the Van Laars’ wealth and influence unravel, revealing the damaging consequences of privilege and the abuse of power.”
