Matt Dillon, Matthew Lillard, and Susan Kelechi Watson to lend their voices to Elliot Wolf's 'Eavesdropper'

Matt Dillon, Matthew Lillard, and Susan Kelechi Watson will star in Eavesdropper, a narrative audio thriller created, written, and produced by Elliot Wolf. 

When a bombing rocks New York City, former Marine Hunter Stevens and his team at Southerly — a new NSA surveillance program listening to Americans through their smart devices — race to track down those responsible. But when Hunter's daughter vanishes without a trace during the investigation, he makes a desperate choice to exploit the system’s vast surveillance network to find her. The decision sets off a chain reaction, exposing corruption, betrayal, and a deeper conspiracy within Southerly itself. Now a target of his own government, Hunter must outmaneuver the program he helped build to uncover the truth before it’s too late.

"Eavesdropper is a powerful reminder of how thin the line can be between heroism and recklessness," Dillon told PEOPLE. "At the heart of the story is a Hunter, a man driven to protect his family and the cost of that protection. It’s tragic, gripping, and deeply human."

The actor has many notable credits, including The Outsiders, There's Something About Mary, Crash, Little Darlings, Wild Things, Beautiful Girls, To Die For, and My Bodyguard

Lillard can most recently be seen in Mike Flanagan's The Life of Chuck. Upcoming projects include Five Nights at Freddy's 2, Scream 7, season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again, and the television adaptation of Carrie

Watson is recognized for her performance in This Is Us, which ran for six seasons, coming to an end in 2022. She just starred in Netflix's The Residence

This will be the first audio series from Wolf. There will be a total of ten episodes, all dropping on July 10 on Audible.
