Where are the cast of Unlocked: A Jail Experiment now?
Fans of the new Netflix reality hit are wondering where the cast members are now
After meeting all the inmates in Netflix's new true-crime/reality show hit Unlocked: A Jail Experiment, many viewers want to know where the cast members are now - so who is still in prison, and who is now walking free?
Netflix aren't afraid to push the boundaries when it comes to their content. We've had disturbing shows like Baby Reindeer, where the chilling real tale behind the drama sends shivers up audiences spines. And we've had lighter, though no less intriguing, stories like their newest adaptation Ripley to sink our teeth into.
But the streamer really made a splash with their latest true-crime series, Unlocked: A Jail Experiment. The show is a mash up, merging a true-crime documentary with a more reality TV take that sees us meet with inmates of a US jail who are awaiting trial as they take part in an experiment to see whether keeping their cell doors open 24/7 can help to create more community within the prison.
Throughout the series, we meet with a variety of inmates, learning about the crimes they've committed and what they think of life in the jail. The inmates' candid talks have led many to want to know more about the cast, with some wondering where inmate Jordan Parkinson is now while others are still struggling to understand the unusual format of the show, asking whether or not Unlocked: A Jail Experiment is even real.
So, if you've binge watched the show, and Netflix's 3 Body Problem hasn't crowded your mind with too many physics questions to wonder more about the cast - seriously, what happened to Will at the end of the show? - here is everything we know about where the cast of Unlocked: A Jail Experiment are now.
