Crimetown is the latest podcast set to be made into a television series.

FX is turning Gimlet Media's serial documentary podcast, which explores the ways organized crime and municipal corruption has shaped Providence, RI, into a scripted show. Hosts Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier (also creators of HBO's The Jinx) will write the adaptation, with Hidden Figures director Ted Melfi set to helm the series.

In addition to Smerling, Stuart-Pontier and Melfi, Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson of Color Force will executive produce the project, which is in the development stages. The latter are the pair are the prolific producers behind Hunger Games and American Crime Story, also on FX.
