AUDIBLE has signed actor/director/producer DANIEL DAE KIM to a multi-project development and first look deal that will launch with an audio adaptation of DAVID HENRY HWANG's play "YELLOW FACE" produced by KIM's production company 3AD and AUDIBLE STUDIOS.

KIM, known for his stints on "LOST" and "HAWAII FIVE-O," said, “I’ve been a fan of DAVID HENRY HWANG, (director) LEIGH SILVERMAN and AUDIBLE’s for a very long time, so teaming up all together is something I’m truly excited by, especially to work on YELLOW FACE. It has always been a special play, and now to be able to bring it new life in an audio format represents an opportunity that’s both unique and innovative."

AUDIBLE EVP/Head of US Content RACHELL GHIAZZA said, "DANIEL DAE KIM is a force. Audiences already know and love him as a powerful performer on stage and on screen, but he also advocates for marginalized people and is a champion of underrepresented voices - an incredibly important area of focus for AUDIBLE. Through our collaboration with KIM’s production company 3AD, we look forward to bringing diverse and thought-provoking stories to life.”
