Wentworth spin-off series Wentworth: Halfway Home announced

The Australian prison drama Wentworth is expanding with a new spin-off series titled “Wentworth: Halfway Home”. The production, currently underway in Melbourne, focuses on the unpredictable reality of life on parole.

The plot follows Sue “Boomer” Jenkins, portrayed by Katrina Milosevic, as she moves into Sal’s Halfway House. Her primary goal is to secure custody of her daughter and build a stable life, but the discovery of a body complicates her efforts to trust those around her.

“Wentworth: Halfway Home” is scheduled to premiere in Australia on December 7 via Binge and Foxtel On Demand, with linear broadcast on Showcase. To prepare for the launch, Binge will make all eight seasons of the original series available starting November 11. The original series, produced by Fremantle Australia, was a reimagining of the classic show “Prisoner” and was distributed to over 170 countries.
