‘American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century’ Gets Series Order

As you know, serial killers and other major criminals are always fascinating. There is something that makes people want to learn more about these individuals and their private lives, as well as their minds.

This is why true crime series are extremely popular, but it’s not just them. Regular live-action series about serial killers are very popular as well and one such series is coming out way.

As it has been confirmed, the book American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century by Maureen Callahan will be adapted as a live-action series and we have more details for you.

The adaptation will come from Scott Rosenbaum, showrunner of USA Network’s Queen of the South, who will adapt the book in a series format, something he has experience with, so we can expect a proper series.

The book itself follows the life of Israel Keyes, a construction worker from Alaska who is known for his specific way of murdering people. Over the course of 14 years, Keyes buried numerous “kill kits” (weapons, utensils, etc.) all over the states and would then drive or fly to a location normally, pick his victim and kill them, as well as dispose of them very easily because he had his equipment nearby.

After that, he would return to his usual job to Alaska, where he was living with his daughter. His mind, as well as his methods are exceptionally interesting and that is why American Predator is such a good basis for a thrilling series, as it is going to explain how the FBI eventually managed to catch Keyes.

Neshama Entertainment, the Canadian producer behind series including Hallmark’s The Way Home, is producing the project, which will be distributed by Fox Entertainment Global.
