Logan Lerman (The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Percy Jackson) is closing a deal to star in Amazon's The Hunt, a Nazi hunter series from Jordan Peele (Get Out, Us) per The Hollywood Reporter.
The 10-episode drama is being written by David Weil (Moonfall) and produced by Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions and Sonar Entertainment.
Inspired by real-life events, the series takes place in 1977 and revolves around a group of Nazi hunters living in New York City.
The Hunters, as they're known, have discovered that hundreds of high ranking Nazi officials are living among us and conspiring to create a Fourth Reich in the U.S. The eclectic team of Hunters will set out on a bloody quest to bring the Nazis to justice and thwart their new genocidal plans.
Lerman will star as Jonah Heidelbaum. When his grandmother is slain by a mysterious intruder in their apartment, sets out to track the culprit — only to find himself swept up in the mysterious organization known as The Hunt, a group of justice-seeking individuals dedicated to rooting out the Nazi murderers living in the U.S. under assumed identities.
