The first Will Trent season will mainly rely on the tales from Triptych, Karin Slaughter’s debut Will Trent book. It’s possible that many viewers haven’t read the novel series that served as the basis for this adaptation. There are ten novels in total, with Triptych being the first. When ABC picked up the pilot, the writers expected to produce a more serialized story with more episodes, according to Deadline. However, ABC was adamant about recreating the show as standalone episodes. This raises the question of whether the crime incidents in the series will be based solely on Triptych, the first book in the series, or will they also be based on later books in the series?
Not necessarily—using concepts from Karin Slaughter’s earlier books is irrational considering that the series explicitly stated that it only adapted her debut book. Nevertheless, the screenplay writers will improvise significant changes to the novel’s plot. The book series must also be followed if the television show is to continue for a very long time in the future, even if each episode can stand alone.

Where is [ABC] Will Trent be filmed?
the movie Will Trent was filmed from October 2021 to February 2022. Atlanta is the location for Will Trent’s filming. And Rodriguez added, “We really establish Atlanta as a character in the pilot, which is why it’s quite awesome when you get to shoot where anything takes place. Atlanta is accurately portrayed in this show by the warmth, heat, appearance, and tones. We also get to travel outside of the city during this season, which is fantastic. Some of the events that have occurred in Atlanta and throughout Georgia have served as inspiration for some of our stories. We, therefore, travel to some slightly more rural, outlying areas where there is some actual history.
