If you're a fan of thrillers, Netflix has no shortage of options, especially with its selection of Harlan Coben adaptations. Coben, known for his suspenseful novels, has become a popular name in the streaming world with many of his books turned into Netflix shows. However, not all of them live up to the hype.

As of right now, there are 10 television series adaptations and one original series of his currently streaming on Netflix. They are Safe, Stay Close, The Innocent, The Stranger, Gone for Good, The Woods, Hold Tight, Missing You, Caught, Fool Me Once and Just One Look. While each of these series has its share of twists and surprises, not all of them succeed in maintaining your interest or keeping the momentum strong throughout. Some may leave you hooked for a few episodes, only to disappoint with predictable plotlines, pacing issues, underdeveloped characters, or unsatisfying conclusions.

We would...

2025 has gotten off to a great start with three new Harlan Coben adaptations released on Netflix. They are Missing You, Just One Look and Caught. But while all three bring their fair share of suspense and mystery, none of them I would consider the best out of the adaptations currently streaming. Missing You could be in the running, but I'd place Fool Me Once ahead of it. In fact, not even Fool Me Once takes the crown as the best Harlan Coben Netflix show. The series that I have in mind is underrated. It's a show that deserves way more recognition than it’s gotten. It's none other than The Innocent, or El inocente in Spanish.

This mystery thriller rarely gets mentioned when people talk about the best Harlan Coben adaptations, which is a real shame because it’s truly a hidden gem. Maybe the fact that it’s in...

Chi McBride has been cast in the upcoming Netflix series “I Will Find You,” Variety has learned exclusively.

McBride joins previously announced lead Sam Worthington as well as cast members Britt Lower, Milo Ventimiglia, Logan Browning, Erin Richards, and Jonathan Tucker.

Based on Coben’s novel of the same name, the official logline states, “An innocent father (Worthington) serving life for the murder of his own son receives evidence that his child may still be alive—and must break out of prison to find out the truth.”

McBride will play Max Williams, described as “a legend in the FBI’s Fugitive Task Force who will doggedly pursue the escaped con David Burrough (Worthington) no matter how much it rips his personal life apart.”

McBride’s recent TV credits include “This Is Us” at NBC, and “Hawaii Five-o” at CBS. He is also known for his roles in shows like “Boston Public,...

If you browse through Netflix's thriller section, you'll notice that Harlan Coben’s adaptations continue to dominate. The streaming platform currently hosts 10 series based on his novels, along with one original show not tied to his published works. In 2025, three out of those 10 series adaptations were released. First was Missing You, followed by Just One Look and then Caught (Atrapados).

But with all three offering their own unique twists, which one truly stands out? Which one will have you hooked from beginning to end and leave you wanting more? In this article, we rank all three from worst to best, so you can find the perfect binge for your next thriller fix.

Here’s my issue with Just One Look.

Exclusive: Jonathan Tucker has joined the cast of Netflix’s I Will Find You.

In a pivotal role in the limited series based on Harlan Coben’s bestselling 2023 novel of the same name, the Echoes alum will portray Police Sergeant Adam Mackenzie. The character is the closest friend of lead Sam Worthington’s David Burroughs, an innocent man behind bars for life for the murder of his son. When David finds out his child may actually be alive, he decides to bust out of prison. Tucker’s Mackenzie is right there to help his pal in any way he can, for better or worse.

The eight-episode thriller series created by Coben and showrunner Robert Hull also features Severance’s Britt Lower, This is Us’ Milo Ventimiglia, The Crown’s Erin Richards and Dear White People’s Logan Browning. Bryan Wynbrandt, Steven Lilien and John Weber executive produce with Coben and Hull.

Harlan Coben struck a five-year deal with Netflix in 2018 to adapt some of his most famous and successful novels. The shows did very well on the platform, so they renewed the deal to continue the partnership, which now includes a Latin American adaptation.

Coben penned 35 novels that have reportedly sold 80 million copies and have been translated into 46 languages. Netflix already boasts a slate filled with limited series adaptations, most of them in English. However, 2025 brought the first Latin American adaptation of Caught, which is already a hit on the platform, per Tudum.

Caught is not the first series in Spanish, as Coben's 2005 novel The Innocent was adapted into an eight-episode limited series in 2021 starring Mario Casas, Alexandra Jiménez, Aura Garrido, José Coronado, and Martina Gusmá. However, it's the first one from Latin America.

The limited series Caught, which is based on Coben's 2010 novel of the same name, premiered on the platform on Mar.

Netflix is chugging forward in their adaptation of Harlan Coben‘s I Will Find You. Based on Coben’s best-selling novel, published in 2023, Netflix’s I Will Find You is an eight-episode series and the first of Harlan’s projects under his exclusive deal with the streamer. The Hollywood Reporter has now revealed that Britt Lower of Severance and Milo Ventimiglia of This is Us are joining the show. Additionally, Logan Browning (Dear White People, Criminal) and Erin Richards (The Crown, Gotham) have also been announced as added to the cast.

It was recently reported that Avatar‘s Sam Worthington will lead the series. According to reports, Sam Worthington plays David Burroughs, “an innocent father serving a life sentence for the murder of his own son — a crime he didn’t commit, yet a tragedy he punishes himself for every day. When David receives evidence that his child may still be alive,...

Netflix will be launching its latest Harlan Coben series with an especially buzzy name. “Severance” star Britt Lower has been added to the cast of “I Will Find You” along with Milo Ventimiglia, Logan Browning and Erin Richards.

Though she’s best known for playing Helly on the Apple TV+ original, Lower has also starred in “Man Seeking Woman” and “Unforgettable.” As for Ventimiglia, he’s known for his Emmy-nominated role as Jack Pearson on “This Is Us” as well as for “Gilmore Girls,” “Heroes” and “Creed II.” As for Browning and Richards, audiences will recognize them for their roles in “Dear White People” and “Gotham,” respectively. All will join previously cast “Avatar” star Sam Worthington in the upcoming series.

Published by Coben in 2023, the adaptation will see Worthington play David Burroughs, an innocent father who’s serving a life sentence for the murder of his son. When he learns...

The cast of the latest Harlan Coben Netflix series adaptation, “I Will Find You,” has added four new cast members.

Variety has learned that Britt Lower, Logan Browning, Erin Richards, and Milo Ventimgilia will all appear in the limited series alongside lead Sam Worthington.

Based on Coben’s novel of the same name, the official logline states, “An innocent father (Worthington) serving life for the murder of his own son receives evidence that his child may still be alive—and must break out of prison to find out the truth.”

Lower will play Rachel Mills, described as “David’s ex-sister-in-law and a former decorated reporter whose life fell apart after she was fired. When she discovers evidence suggesting an incredible secret, Rachel views it as a once-in-a-lifetime story that could be her ticket back to journalism.”

Lower currently stars in the hit Apple TV+ series “Severance,” which recently aired its second season finale.

Britt Lower (Severance), Milo Ventimiglia (This is Us), Erin Richards (The Crown) and Logan Browning (Dear White People) are set to star opposite Sam Worthington in I Will Find You, Netflix’s limited series based on Harlan Coben’s bestselling novel.

I Will Find You revolves around David Burroughs (Worthington), an innocent father serving life for the murder of his own son who receives evidence that his child may still be alive — and must break out of prison to find out the truth.

Lower will play Rachel Mills. David’s ex-sister-in-law and a former decorated reporter whose life fell apart after she was fired. When she discovers evidence suggesting an incredible secret, Rachel views it as a once-in-a-lifetime story that could be her ticket back to journalism.

If you can read this, you can also check out the latest Harlan Coben adaptation on Netflix. The popular and prolific author's latest novel-turned-series, Caught, was released on the streaming behemoth today, Wednesday, March 26, 2025. And with its arrival, so too, comes some insight from Coben himself on his other projects currently in the works, Runaway and I Will Find You.

In new reporting from Variety, Coben let a few details slip about the forthcoming projects. Namely, that the Minnie Driver, James Nesbitt, and Ruth Jones-starring Runaway is already in production in England, and that the Sam Worthington-frontedI Will Find You will begin shooting even sooner than you think! Unfortunately, the update did not include any details on his Myron Bolitar television series with equally-as-prolific (and beloved!) television creator David E. Kelley.

Speaking with Variety, the author explained that:

"Production is also about to start in two to three...

Revered journalist Ema Garay, known for unmasking criminals who’ve evaded the law, is thrown off course when she meets Leo Mercer, a respected man in the community who becomes her prime suspect when she sets out to investigate the disappearance of a teenage girl. As she searches for the truth, Ema is forced to confront her own demons.

Harlan Coben’s first Latin American adaptation, the series Caught — based on the book of the same name — stars Soledad Villamil, Juan Minujín, and Alberto Ammann. Directed by Miguel Cohan (Blood Will Tell) and Hernán Goldfrid (The Bronze Garden), it’s the third adaptation of Coben’s books to premiere this year, along with Missing You and Just One Look. Previous Netflix shows based on Coben's books include Fool Me Once, Hold Tight, The Innocent, Stay Close, Gone for Good, The Stranger, The Woods, and Safe. His upcoming Netflix projects Run...

In an exclusive interview with Variety, bestselling author Harlan Coben sat down alongside director-showrunner Miguel Cohan (“No Return”) to drill down on the first Latin American Netflix adaptation of one of his multiple novels, “Caught,” (“Atrapados”).

Speaking on Zoom from Buenos Aires, Coben was full of praise for the work Cohan and his team had done on the mini-series adaptation for Netflix, set to debut worldwide on March 26. “What I love about this project is the idea of taking a novel by an American author and blending it with Argentine sensibilities – especially their incredible talent and unique settings,” he said.

He took a hands-off approach to the re-version, trusting them implicitly on their ability to adapt his work to an Argentine backdrop.

“I did not feel the need to interfere all that much but I did really want Soledad Villamil for the lead from day one,” he noted of the...

While we’re now used to the dreaded Netflix ax falling on popular shows after one season, the streamer has provided some good news for a change, as their recent surprise hit crime thriller series has now been renewed for Season 2. Landing on the streaming platform just over two weeks ago, the Colombian crime series Medusa will return for a second series, with the cast revealing the news on social media.

The sudden renewal comes just after Medusa debuted on Netflix earlier this month on March 5, with the new X/Twitter post stating, “Oh no, Barbara almost doesn’t remember the gossip ‘Medusa’ will have season 2. Only on Netflix.” An original story set in Barranquilla, Colombia, Medusa offers audiences all the thrills, drama, betrayal, and intrigue they could possibly want. And, considering that Season 1 ends on a cliffhanger, fans of the show will no doubt be relieved to hear that Medusa Season 2 is officially happening.

Netflix's new series based on Harlan Coben's novels about the character Myron Bolitar got a major name as producer. Mega TV producer David E. Kelley (Lincoln Lawyer) will be collaborating with Coben as co-writers and co-executive producers, per Deadline.

Coben signed a deal with Netflix several years ago which has seen several of his books adapted as shows and upon renewing in 2022, Netflix got access to the 11 Bolitar novels and a novella called Win. Having Kelley team up with the author is perfect, as he already has Lincoln Lawyer streaming on Netflix, which is also based on the series of novels by Michael Connelly.

Kelley is a prolific television producer and writer, having created some of the biggest shows of the last few decades, including L.A. Law, Ally McBeal, The Practice, Presumed Innocent, and several others. And not all of them are legal shows; the author famously wrote...

Exclusive: Emmy winner David E. Kelley, who created Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer based on Michael Connelly’s novels, is helping bring another popular book character by a bestselling author to the streamer. The prolific writer-producer has teamed with Harlan Coben to adapt his Myron Bolitar novels as a TV series, sources tell Deadline.

In addition to writing the script, Kelley and Coben are executive producing the potential series with David E. Kelley Prods. President Matthew Tinker. Netflix declined comment.

The project has been a priority for Netflix when it re-upped its overall deal with Coben in 2022. The original pact gave the streamer access to 14 Coben books to develop into English-language and foreign-language series as well as films. The 2022 pact added 12 more titles: Coben’s signature 11-book Myron Bolitar series as well as the standalone 2021 novella Win, for an adaptation as an ongoing, U.S.-based series.

The books’ title...

The newly released trailer for Caught teases the latest Harlan Coben adaptation coming to Netflix. Filmed against the scenic backdrop of Patagonia, Argentina, the upcoming six-episode miniseries marks the first-ever Latin American adaptation of the bestselling work from the mystery and thriller novelist. Netflix’s ongoing collaboration with Coben has sparked a long line of successful TV adaptations, including Fool Me Once, Stay Close, and most recently Missing You, which topped Netflix’s Global Top 10 for English-language series upon its release earlier this year. Caught is set to premiere on March 26.

Now, Netflix has released the first official trailer for Caught, which follows investigative journalist Ema Garay, played by Soledad Villamil, as she builds her reputation by exposing criminals who evade justice. Her latest case takes a dark and unexpected turn when she meets Leo Mercer (Juan Minujín), a respected social worker who becomes the prime suspect in her investigation...

Actor Sam Worthington is about to enter another universe you know and love — but this time with fewer blue humanoids. The prolific television creator and novelist, Harlan Coben, has found his latest leading man in the Avatar actor. And his next limited series adaptation sounds like a real emotional doozy, which is fitting. According to Variety, Worthington will play a character from Coben's novel, I Will Find You, and it focuses on a heartbreaking, twisting tale of false imprisonment and a thrillingly harrowing family mystery.

It falls in line with Coben's work — 12 of his 37 novels have been adapted for film and television, and frequently feature unresolved murders and/or events from the past coming back to haunt their protagonist. He is beloved for his dramatic twists and turns, and has been heavily involved in bringing his novels to the small screen for Netflix. The same can be said of I Will Find You,...

Netflix’s adaptation of Harlan Coben‘s I Will Find You novel is ready to name its leading man as Sam Worthington joins the cast. Based on Coben’s best-selling novel, published in 2023, Netflix’s I Will Find You is an eight-episode series and the first of Harlan’s projects under his exclusive deal with the streamer.

According to reports, Sam Worthington plays David Burroughs, “an innocent father serving a life sentence for the murder of his own son — a crime he didn’t commit, yet a tragedy he punishes himself for every day. When David receives evidence that his child may still be alive, he must break out of prison to find out the truth.”

I Will Find You joins Netflix adaptations of Corben novels in four languages across different countries – the British Fool Me Once, Stay Close, The Stranger, The Innocent, Gone for Good, Hold Tight, The Woods, and the recently released Missing You. According to Deadline, the series was ordered in November and is the first U.S. adaptation of one of Coben’s books under his exclusive deal with Netflix. Here is everything we know about the upcoming TV series. What is I Will Find You about?

Ordered in November, the eight-episode series is the first greenlighted U.S. adaptation of a book by Corben under his exclusive deal with Netflix.

Coben co-created the series adaptation with Robert Hull (God Friended Me) who serves as showrunner. The two executive produce with Bryan Wynbrandt, Steven Lilien and John Weber.

French-Moroccan multi-hyphenate Roschdy Zem (“Days of Glory,” “The Innocent”) and Italy’s Barbara Ronchi (“Kidnapped”) are set to star in psychological drama “Elisa — Io la volevo uccidere” by Italian director Leonardo Di Costanzo.

Zem, who is one of France’s most bankable actors, will play a compassionate criminologist named Alaoui, whose life intersects with a young woman named Elisa, played by Ronchi. Elisa comes from a middle class family and has been in prison for 10 years for brutally killing her sister.

Rounding off the cast is Diego Ribon (“Doc”), who plays Elisa’s father.

Shooting is set to start March 1 on “Elisa — Io la volevo uccidere,” which is the film’s Italian working title and translates as “Elisa — I Wanted to Kill Her.”

If you're a fan of the Harlan Coben Netflix shows, you don't have to wait long for the next one! After Missing You premiered on Netflix on Jan. 1, 2025, Netflix is rolling out the next of Coben's shows in March.

We've known for a while that Caught (also known as Atrapados) would be the next of Coben's shows coming to Netflix, thanks to updates from the mystery author himself. We just didn't know it would be in the same quarter as Missing You. Two Harlan Coben Netflix shows in one quarter? We aren't complaining!

Caught release date

Caught premieres on Netflix on Wednesday, March 26, according to Coben, who announced the release date on Twitter/X. That's where Coben shares a ton of updates about his projects, so give him a follow if you want to stay up to date.

In addition to the premiere date, Coben also shared the first teaser trailer of the new series.

Thriller author Harlan Coben signed a multi-million-dollar deal with streaming service Netflix in August 2018, which would grant the giant the rights to 14 of its novels over the course of five years. Since then, the deal has been extended as the adaptations, which were turned into limited series, have proven to be major successes.

Following the recent success of the latest addition, Missing You, Netflix has announced the cast for the latest adaptation. Run Away was announced in January 2024 alongside Missing You, and it will feature a cast filled with famous names. Per Tudum, Good Will Hunting's Minnie Driver will be joined by 15 other familiar names.

Harlan Coben’s next Netflix series “Run Away” has announced its sprawling cast, including James Nesbitt, Ruth Jones and Minnie Driver.

Alfred Enoch, Lucian Msamati, Jon Pointing, Ellie de Lange, Adrian Greensmith, Ellie Henry, Tracy-Ann Oberman, Annette Badland, Ingrid Oliver, Maeve Courtier-Lilley, Finty Williams, Joe McGann and Amy Gledhill round out the cast.

The eight-episode series follows Simon (Nesbitt), whose life falls apart when his daughter Paige (de Lange) runs away. When he finds her, strung out on drugs in a city park, she isn’t alone. An argument escalates into shocking violence, and Simon loses his little girl all over again. Per the logline, “his search to find her will take him into a dangerous underworld, revealing deep secrets that could tear his family apart forever.”

Production on the series will commence in the U.K. in January. “Jimmy Nesbitt, Ruth Jones, Alfred Enoch, Lucian Msamati and Minnie Driver...

As one of the most prolific and successful mystery writers of the past 30 years, it's unsurprising that many of Harlan Coben's novels have been adapted for the small screen by a streamer like Netflix. Featuring more twists and turns than a country lane, Coben's stories are perfectly suited to the miniseries format. However, some have been more successful than others. Of the eight Coben books so far adapted, most have enjoyed a generally positive critical reception.

Productions of Safe, The Stranger, The Woods, The Innocent, Stay Close, and Fool Me Once have all been rated as "Fresh" on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes – further highlighting just how suited Coben's writing is to television. However, the burgeoning Coben-verse hasn't been a total success. Gone for Good and Hold Tight have both failed to impress critics, while other shows have been more polarizing than their overall critical scores suggest.

Harlan Coben's latest adaptation continues a positive Netflix trend for the acclaimed writer and executive producer. Missing You, which debuted on January 1, is among the most-watched shows so far this year on the platform.

Per FlixPatrol, the Coben adaptation debuted at No. 3 on Netflix's Top 10 most-watched series list and is still yet to drop below fourth place. Missing You's success continues the mystery novel writer's streak of wins since he inked a multi-million-dollar, 5-year contract with Netflix in 2018. Per the terms of the deal, the giant streamer would develop fourteen of his novels for the big and small screen, with Coben as executive producer on all projects. The deal was extended in 2022 following the arrival of The Stranger, The Woods, The Innocent, Gone For Good, Stay Close, and Hold Me Tight, all to varying degrees of acclaim. 2024's Fool Me Once was Coben's last adaptation to debut before his latest effort.

Everyone’s tuning in to Missing You on Netflix, and with only five episodes, it’s quick to binge-watch in no time! If you found yourself hooked on this mystery thriller and are craving more of Harlan Coben’s thrilling storytelling, you're in luck.

This New York Times bestselling author has many other shows similar to Missing You streaming on Netflix. This is due to his overall deal with the streamer, which involves him adapting his books into TV shows and movies for the streaming platform. Missing You is his most recent Netflix series adaptation, but many of his other books have already been turned into shows for the streaming service.

However, that doesn't mean they're all entertaining. We would hate for you to waste your time going through the rest of Coben's collection on Netflix without knowing which ones are truly worth the binge. That's why we're about to...

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Missing You.

Netflix’s new Harlan Coben series Missing You repeats one of the most notable complaints from another Coben series, Fool Me Once. After releasing on Netflix on January 1, 2025, Missing You has become one of the most popular new series of the new year. Rosalind Eleazar leads the cast of Missing You alongside Ashley Walters, Mary Malone, Jessica Plummer, Richard Armitage, and Charlie Hamblett. The 5-part series was directed by Nimer Rashed and Isher Sahota.

Missing You is the latest entry to Netflix's Harlan Coben Collection, which also includes The Stranger, Stay Close, Safe, Hold Tight, The Innocent, Gone For Good, and 2024's Fool Me Once. Despite its current popularity on Netflix, Missing You divided critics, earning a score of 52% on Rotten Tomatoes and an eyebrow-raising 27% audience score. One of the major reasons for Missing You's notably low audience score is its numerous plot holes and head-scratching moments.

“I Will Find You” sees a father serving life in prison after being convicted of murdering his own son. Here’s the deal though: Dad didn’t do it, and the son may still be alive — but not of that can be proven from the inside. Yes, tonight there’s gonna be a jailbreak.

Coben will executive produce through his Final Twist Productions; John Weber also executive produces. As do Bryan Wynbrandt and Steven Lilien, who worked with Hull on NBC’s “Quantum Leap” remake.

Harlan’s gripping stories are beloved around the world and have consistently captivated fans with their trademark twists and turns, dramatic cliffhangers, and compelling mysteries,” Peter Friedlander, Netflix’s vp scripted series for the U.S. and Canada, said in a statement. “There is no one like Harlan and his first U.S. scripted series with Netflix will be no exception. We know he and Robby will deliver the same thrilling experience...

Netflix has set its next series with Harlan Coben.

The streamer has greenlit “I Will Find You,” a limited series based on Coben’s novel of the same name. Coben serves as cocreator and executive producer alongside Robert Hull, who serves as cocreator, showrunner and executive producer for the series.

The official logline for “I Will Find You” is as follows: “An innocent father serving life for the murder of his own son receives evidence that his child may still be alive—and must break out of prison to find out the truth.” The limited series will consist of eight episodes.

“I Will Find You” marks the first U.S. scripted series under Coben’s creative partnership with Netflix.

Covered with laurels for his recent series “Soviet Jeans” (audience award at Series Mania 2024) and for his features “Modris” (Latvia’s Oscar submission 2014) and “Oleg” (Cannes Director’s Fortnight entry 2019), Latvian writer/director Juris Kursietis is competing at Tallinn’s Black Nights Film Festival’s Official Selection with “The Exalted,” due to world premiere Nov. 14.

The satire about cultural clashes between Eastern and Western Europe, seen through the prism of an upper-class couple, has just been acquired by newly launched French sales outfit B-Rated International, outside the co-producing countries Estonia, Latvia, and Greece.

“The Exalted” offers a harsh and cynical portrayal of the upper class,” said Arnaud Chevallier, formerly at Mediawan International Sales and founder of the Paris-based outfit. “We admire the pic’s brilliant and subtle directing and are convinced that it will resonate with foreign audiences due to its globally relevant themes and multiple languages spoken throughout the film.

You just finished The Last Night at Tremore Beach, the latest mind-boggling offering from Oriol Paulo, and now you don’t know what to do with life. Well, the only way to fill the void is to start something similar, and that’s why you’re here. So in this article, I am going to suggest certain movies and shows that you might consider watching if you enjoyed Oriol Paulo’s Netflix show. I hope all of you find something here.

Caddo Lake (2024)

Let us start with something from the very recent past. I could have just suggested Dark instead, but assuming many of you have already seen that show, I urge you to give Caddo Lake a try. Yes, the latest M. Night Shyamalan-produced horror-thriller takes a whole lot of ideas from the iconic Netflix series, but the good thing about the movie is that it also implements the ideas really well.

The Last Night at Tremore Beach has dropped on Netflix, and the show has everything it takes to become the next sensation for the streaming service. It is directed by none other than Oriol Paulo, who gained quite a reputation thanks to the 2016 blockbuster The Invisible Guest, along with The Body, (2012) Mirage, (2017) God’s Crooked Lines, (2022) and the Netflix miniseries The Innocent (2021). The man’s work speaks volumes, and it can safely be said that The Last Night at Tremore Beach pretty much justifies the hype. The series focuses on Alex, a composer who moves to a coastal town after a fatal accident to get his mojo back. Obviously, it is much more than that. In this article, we are going to take a closer look at the cast and the characters they play in the show.

The first feature film written by Paulo was Julia’s Eyes, and it was remade as Blurr. His debut directorial was The Body, which was not only remade in Hindi but also in Korean and Tamil-Kannada. Paulo then went on to make The Invisible Guest, which gained such worldwide popularity that it got an Italian, a Hindi, a Telugu, a Korean, a Kannada, and a Chinese remake. Paulo’s Mirage got a Hindi adaptation in the form of Dobaaraa. Paulo received critical acclaim and several awards for God’s Crooked Lines, and his first Netflix miniseries, The Innocent, was a massive hit. So, it...

On Wednesday it was announced that Reese Witherspoon is writing her debut novel, and now she’s shedding a little light on her journey to becoming a published author.

The star is penning a suspense novel with bestselling author and TV creator Harlan Coben, based on her original idea. At her Hello Sunshine media company’s Shine Away event on Saturday, Witherspoon told The Hollywood Reporter that she had “been sitting on that news for two years.”

“I had the idea two years ago and then I approached Harlan Coben probably eight months ago and I was like, ‘Am I crazy?’ He said, ‘This is a really good idea Reese,’ so I knew I was onto something,” she explained. “Then we started brainstorming together and it just started to grow and become this really fun opportunity to create together.
