Fast-paced thrillers, characters willing to risk everything and a cult hero finally brought to the screen — in 2026, Netflix continues its successful partnership with the American writer Harlan Coben. He once again promises gripping series packed with suspense and unexpected twists.

Since signing his partnership with Netflix in 2018, Harlan Coben has become one of the leading figures in crime drama on the famous streaming platform. Of the 14 adaptations planned, 11 are already available and have captivated subscribers around the world.

With more than 80 million books sold worldwide, the 64-year-old American author consistently turns his gripping plots into on-screen successes. And 2026 is only just getting started for him. Two more of his works are about to make their debut on Netflix.

I Will Find You, a high-stakes thriller

The next confirmed adaptation is I Will Find You, due for release in 2026. Inspired by the 2023 novel, the series follows David, a father serving a life sentence for the murder of his son. While behind bars, an unexpected development turns his world upside down: new evidence suggests that his child may still be alive.

Determined to uncover the truth at any cost, David escapes from prison and embarks on a relentless, high-risk quest. The series stars British-Australian actor Sam Worthington, alongside Britt Lower, Milo Ventimiglia, Erin Richards and Chi McBride. The production also marks a turning point in Harlan Coben’s career: it is his first Netflix adaptation filmed in the United States.

Myron Bolitar, the cult hero finally on screen?

The adaptation of the novels centred on Myron Bolitar is also highly anticipated. The author’s signature character, a former basketball player turned sports agent, investigates cases involving disappearances and buried secrets alongside his friend Win.

Long reluctant to bring the adventures of his favourite hero to the screen, Harlan Coben is said to have finally found the ideal actor to portray him. For now, few details have been revealed, but the forthcoming series could well become one of Netflix’s unmissable television events.
