Zachary Quinto-Narrated Audiobook THE DISPATCHER to Be Adapted Into Series

The Dispatcher, an audiobook narrated by Zachary Quinto, will be adapted into a television series.

Deadline reports that the new series producer Uri Singer has acquired the rights to the property. Singer recently produced Netflix's recent Underworld feature film.

The Dispatcher takes place in a futuristic Chicago where it is nearly impossible to murder anyone. 99% of murders resolve in anyone who is intentionally killed coming back. The new series will follow Tony Valdez, a Dispatcher who is a professional at humanely dispatching those about to die, so they can have a SECOND CHANCE to avoid their true death. He teams up with CHICAGO PD detective, Nona Langdon, to help save those at death's door and solve the crimes that originally brought them to that point.

Quinto is also known for his Emmy nominated performance in American Horror Story: Asylum.
