NBC’s given a series order to the medical drama Dr. Wolf, with Zachary Quinto (Star Trek film franchise, American Horror Story) on board to star. The one-hour drama, inspired by Oliver Sacks’ books The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (1985) and An Anthropologist on Mars (1995), doesn’t have a targeted premiere date as of yet.
In addition to Zachary Quinto, confirmed cast members include Tamberla Perry (They Cloned Tyrone), Ashleigh LaThrop (The Kominsky Method), Alexander MacNicoll (The Society), Aury Krebs (Way Down), Spence Moore II (The Wonder Years), and Teddy Sears (The Flash).
“Inspired by Oliver Sacks’ extraordinary life and work, Dr. Wolf follows revolutionary, larger-than-life neurologist Oliver Wolf (Quinto) and his team of interns as they explore the last great frontier — the human mind — while also grappling with their own relationships and mental health,” reads NBC’s official synopsis.
Michael Grassi (Riverdale) is guiding the series as writer and executive producer, with Lee Toland Krieger (You) directing the pilot and executive producing. Berlanti Productions’ Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and Leigh London Redman are involved as executive producers along with Fabel Entertainment’s Henrik Bastin and Melissa Aouate. DeMane Davis and The Imaginarium’s Andy Serkis, Jonathan Cavendish, and Will Tennant also executive produce.
