Peacock is in development on a drama series about dentist-turned-drug lord Larry Lavin. If ordered to series, Lavin will be played by Colin Jost with Alex Barnow serving as showrunner.
The currently untitled series is based on Season 1 of the Audacy true crime podcast “Wolves Among Us.” The official description for the project reads, “By day, Larry Lavin was a respected Ivy League dentist and family man – by night, the East Coast’s most elusive cocaine kingpin. This series is inspired by the shocking and absurd true story of the suburban dentist who built a drug empire behind the façade of the American dream.”
