A thrilling new narrative audio series is set to captivate audiences, led by the talented trio of Matt Dillon, Matthew Lillard and Susan Kelechi Watson. “Eavesdropper,” a production from the inventive minds at Law & Order, is making its debut on Audible, marking the creation of Elliot Wolf, the son of renowned Law & Order executive producer, Dick Wolf.
The storyline unfolds in the aftermath of a bombing in New York City, where former Marine, Hunter Stevens, and his team at Southerly – a cutting-edge NSA surveillance program tapping into Americans’ smart devices – embark on a mission to uncover the perpetrators. However, when Hunter’s daughter mysteriously disappears during the investigation, he is faced with a harrowing decision to exploit the surveillance network in a desperate attempt to locate her.
As the plot thickens, corruption, betrayal, and a sinister conspiracy within Southerly come to light, propelling Hunter into a dangerous game where he becomes a target of his own government. Dillon, reflecting on the gripping narrative, describes “Eavesdropper” as a poignant exploration of the blurred lines between heroism and recklessness, delving into themes of sacrifice and family bonds.
Scheduled for release on July 10, the 10-episode series promises listeners an immersive experience, exclusively on Audible. Stemming from Audible’s endeavour to expand its original content offerings, “Eavesdropper” marks Elliot Wolf’s foray into the realm of audio storytelling, following his success with Prime Video’s acclaimed police procedural, “On Call.”
While Matt Dillon is celebrated for his illustrious four-decade film career, his venture into voice acting has also garnered accolades, including a Grammy nomination in 2001 for narrating Jack Kerouac’s “On the Road” audiobook. Similarly, Matthew Lillard, a seasoned voice actor recognised for his portrayal of Shaggy in Scooby-Doo, and Susan Kelechi Watson, known for her roles in “This Is Us” and recent Netflix show “The Residence,” bring their distinctive talents to breathe life into the characters of “Eavesdropper.”
