Puzzles, Problem Solving And Preteen Adventures. Rock Island Mysteries To Make A Splash in the Middle East
Brand New Australian Series, Rock Island Mysteries To Premiere on Nickelodeon Arabia Soon
Shot on the sun-drenched beaches and jungle-like hinterlands of Australia’s Gold Coast, Rock Island Mysteries (20 episodes) is a mystery drama comedy series that follows the adventures of 14-year-old Taylor and her friends as they explore the secrets of the beautiful and mysterious Rock Island.
Produced by Fremantle Media, the new teen series will premiere on Nickelodeon Arabia (جَزِيرَةُ الْعَرَب) on OSN on Sunday 16th October 2022.
Featuring a diverse main cast anchored by Australian leads, the series follows the adventures of Taylor Young (Alexa Curtis), a charismatic and energetic leader, and her tight-knit group of friends – Nori Harlow (Noah Akhigbe), Meesha Rai (Inessa Tan), Ellis Grouch (Ryan Yeates) and step-sister Lila Gray (Izellah Connelly) – as they explore the mysteries of the island on which they live, fuelled by Taylor’s fascination with her Uncle Charlie’s disappearance, and determination to find out what happened to him. Joining the young cast are adults Kimberley Joseph, Craig Horner, Monette Lee, Annabelle Stephenson, and Lucas Linehan.
Every episode sees the gang tackle a new mystery, spurred on by Taylor’s irrepressible desire to uncover the inexplicable side of the Island and the true whereabouts of Uncle Charlie.
A tight and sometimes chaotic team of contrasting personalities, the gang are all drawn into Taylor’s quests, each member bringing something unique to the mix, be it Nori’s witty and rational practicality, Meesha’s gutsy, never-say-die attitude, Ellis’ book smarts and technical know-how, or sassy Lila’s loyal and sisterly devotion to Taylor.
"Taylor and her group of friends are living what seems to be the perfect island life with sun-soaked beaches and jungle-like hinterlands. But underneath that perfect facade lies a hotbed of cryptic riddles, thrilling legends, and unexplainable mysteries waiting to be unravelled. Fuelled by her fascination with her Uncle Charlie’s disappearance five years earlier, Taylor is the determined leader in pursuit of the truth. Alongside Taylor, there’s Nori, a wisecracking rebel who’s got an answer for everything; Meesha, a toughas-nails sports nut who’s up for anything; Ellis, a hypochondriac who’s the brains of the group; and Taylor’s stepsister Lila, an aspiring vlogger who adores her older sister. With a determination to leave no stone unturned, the five best friends jump head first into a series of intriguing mysteries and nail-biting adventures through ancient caves, remote islands and eerie jungles."
Rock Island Mysteries was previously announced as Taylor’s Island and is a Fremantle Media production for Paramount Australia and Nickelodeon International, with major production funding from Screen Australia and support from Screen Queensland. The series was produced at Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast.
Rock Island Mysteries made its global premiere in Australia on Monday, 2 May at 5pm on 10 Shake and 10 Play. The series then debuted across Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand on Monday 6th June 2022 and will broadcast to global audiences on Nickelodeon International later in the year.
The series was created by Matthew Cooke, Vincent Lund and Michael Ford. Writers are Stephen Vagg, Sam Carroll, Alix Beane, David Hannam, Marisa Nathar, Natesha Somasundaram, Trent Roberts, Jessica Brookman and Hannah Samuel. Tenika Smith, Jovita O’Shaughnessy and Evan Clarry direct.

From here on their lives are changed forever as Taylor and her best friends, set off on a race-against-time clue trail around the island, leading them to a fantastic discovery. They use Uncle Charlie’s journal to investigate the island’s secrets, based out of Charlie’s old aircraft, the Bermuda Queen.

CHARACTER BIOS
TAYLOR YOUNG
Taylor, played by Alexa Curtis, is the gang’s determined, charming, and persuasive leader. She is a natural born explorer who is dedicated to solving the island’s mysteries and uncovering what happened to her Uncle Charlie.
NORI HARLOW
Nori, played by Noah Akhigbe, is a bright, wisecracking cynic who uses his brilliant humor to mask his uncertainties about Taylor’s quests. Nori, Taylor’s best friend and confidante, is the one who keeps everything in check. With his pragmatic attitude and rational solutions to all the mysteries they encounter, he’s constantly on hand, and with his playful, wry sense of humor, he’s often quick to diffuse moments of tension, danger and weirdness.
Meesha, played by Inessa Tan, is a competitive and blunt jock who enjoys being a part of Taylor’s escapades and the training opportunities they offer. She is really athletic and to the point!
ELLIS GROUCH
Ellis, played by Ryan Yeates, is the “brain” of the friend group, who is book smart and science-minded yet has a phobia of almost everything and would actually jump at his own shadow. While he screams at the sight of a spoon, Ellis has a big heart and would do anything for his buddies… even though he will complain a lot while doing it.
LILA GRAY
Lila is Taylor’s devoted, dramatic, and sassy stepsister, played by Izellah Connelly. She’s wannabe vlog-star who is always interfering in her sister’s adventures in order to create ‘killer content’ for her YouTube channel, ‘Island Life.’ Lila is an important part of the group who enjoys every adventure, although she is often sidetracked and has a tendency to over-dramatize things.
EMILY YOUNG
Emily is Taylor’s mother and Lila’s stepmother, and she is played by Kimberley Joseph. Emily works as a marine biologist at The Poseidon Institute and is a loving mom who is glad to let Taylor explore the island.
SUNNY GRAY
Sunny, played by Craig Horner, is Lila’s father and Taylor’s stepfather. Sunny is a cheerful and kind meteorologist who is fascinated by the island’s unusual weather conditions.
GILLIA RAI
Monette Lee plays Meesha’s grandmother, who owns The Milk Shack, a beachside café and a favorite local hangout for the gang. Gillian, who has spent her whole life on the island, is a wealth of local information and is always willing to share island tales with the kids while giving them the tastiest smoothies on the island!
RAQUEL NEWMAN
Raquel, played by Annabelle Stephenson, is a suspicious scientist who works at The Poseidon Institute’s covert South Section. The youngsters don’t trust Raquel, but they have no idea that she’s exploring the island’s mysteries for her own reasons.
UNCLE CHARLIE
Taylor’s Uncle Charlie, played by Lucas Linehan, was a dreamer, traveller, and explorer who was born with a deep curiosity about the world and a fierce desire to discover the secrets of Rock Island. Charlie was liked by everyone because he was charming, amusing, and passionate, but they couldn’t comprehend his fascination with the island. Taylor, his elder sister’s kid, was the only one who understood.
Nickelodeon is available on OSN, the region’s leading premium entertainment content company, with most of the content available for streaming on OSN+.
OSN+ can be accessed online and via iOS and Android apps. The service costs USD 9.5/- per month and includes a 7-day Free Trial, stream now at www.osnplus.com
