Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity has landed the first interview with George Zimmerman, TV Newser reports. The exclusive interview will air on Hannity's FNC show Wednesday at 9 p.m.

Zimmerman is accused of killing Florida teenager Trayvon Martin last February. On Hannity, he will discuss what happened on the night of Martin's death, according to the report. Zimmerman's lawyer Mark O'Mara will also participate in the interview.

Zimmerman has been a hot booking prospect for TV news outlets since the media storm in the week's following Martin's death. Hannity spoke to him off the record about his case in April after Zimmerman's lawyers dropped him as a client.

A Fox News spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment at press time.
