Patrick Brammall, co-creator and star of breakout Australian comedy Colin from Accounts, is swapping laughs for a white-knuckle thriller.
Brammall is starring in a series adaptation of Ryan David Jahn’s book The Dispatcher for Apple TV+. The six-part series comes from Kris Mrksa (Requiem).
Brammall will play police detective Ian Hunt, whose life fell apart ten years ago when his young daughter Maggie disappeared without a trace. Now working as a police dispatcher, the only thing that has kept him going is his implacable refusal to accept that she might be gone forever. When he receives a distress call from a young girl he is certain is Maggie, he will stop at nothing to find her and reunite his broken family, whatever the cost.
The series is executive produced by Jamie Laurenson and Hakan Kousetta at 60Forty Films, with executive producers Kris Mrksa and Joanna Werner at Werner Film Productions.
