Indonesian drama fans are in for a treat this October. “Secret High School”, a new thriller series produced by Skytree Pictures in collaboration with Viu and MAXStream Studios, is set to premiere on October 3, 2025.

This series combines the tension of a mystery thriller with the emotional intensity of youth drama, offering a fresh take on the high school setting rarely seen in local productions.

A Dangerous Secret Behind the School Gates

The story follows Shaka (played by Yesaya Abraham), a young intelligence agent who goes undercover as a student at Sudharma High School, an elite institution hiding a deadly secret. His mission: to save his younger brother Seno (Febriant Teja), who’s caught in a dangerous web of mystery.

As Shaka digs deeper, he uncovers a network of secrets and conspiracies that put lives at risk. Along the way, he teams up with Aura (Tissa Biani), a sharp-minded young teacher who suspects something dark is lurking within the school’s walls.

Adapted from a Viral TikTok Story

“Secret High School” is based on the viral TikTok AU (Alternate Universe) story written by Queena, which gained over 26 million views and later became a best-selling novel. With such a massive fanbase, the adaptation already has a strong following before its release.

A Young and Dynamic Cast

The series features a lineup of talented young actors, including Ryan Winter, Florian Rutters, Rafly Altama, Sheryl Jesslyn, and Olla Ramlan. Their fresh performances are expected to bring emotional depth and excitement to the high-tension storyline.

High-Quality Local Production

Produced jointly by Viu Indonesia and MAXStream Studios, this 9-episode series is designed to deliver strong visuals, intense pacing, and high production value comparable to international thrillers.

Despite being an adaptation, the challenge lies in meeting fan expectations while introducing cinematic storytelling that fits the local context.

A New Era for Indonesian Thrillers

“Secret High School” could mark an important step for Indonesian series on the global stage. With its combination of youthful energy, dark mystery, and emotional depth, it’s poised to capture both teen audiences and adult viewers who love complex storytelling.

For fans of mystery and school-based dramas, this series promises not just thrills — but a story that keeps you guessing until the very end.
