Thai Cave Rescue (Template:Lang-th) is a 6-part limited series produced by Netflix, directed by Kevin Tancharoen and Nattawut Poonpiriya.[1] It was released on September 22, 2022.[2][3]

Premise

The series is based on the events of the Tham Luang cave rescue that occurred in Tham Luang-Khun Nam Nang Non National Park during June and July 2018, in which twelve members of the Wild Boars youth football team and their assistant coach were rescued from the flooded Tham Luang Nang Non cave system.

Cast

The twelve members of the Wild Boars football team are played by Pratya Patong, Songpol Kantawong, Chakkapat Sisat, Thanawut Chetuku, Teeraphat Somkaew, Thanaphong Kanthawong, Thanapat Phungpumkaew, Aphisit Yookham, Watcharaphol Puangsawan, Thapanot Huttapasu, Apisit Saengchan, and Rattaphoom Nakeesathid.[5]

Production

In 2019, Netflix received the rights from 13 Tham Luang Company Limited, a company set up to oversee the story rights of the rescued members of the Wild Boars football team, to produce the series.[1] Although there have been a number of films produced concerning the events, Thai Cave Rescue is the only dramatic production that was granted access to the members of the Wild Boars, and featured their perspectives of their ordeal.[2]

On August 23, 2021, the production team of the series arrived at Tham Luang-Khun Nam Nang Non in Chiang Rai Province to prepare for the filming. Filming was conducted in the real homes of the members of the Wild Boars team as well as in the cave itself.[5] During production, the crew experienced difficulties when Thailand was locked down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of restrictions, the number of extras was reduced and crowd scenes were drastically scaled down.
