It will follow a highly skilled team of operatives as they recover hostages from some of the world's most exotic and dangerous locations.
Snatchback boasts an impressive team behind the scenes. Scott Rosenbaum, known for his work on The Shield and Chuck, will serve as the writer and executive producer.
