Netflix has confirmed that two more new Harlan Coben shows are on the way after the smash-hit success of Fool Me Once.
A further two novels in the world-renowned author‘s extensive repertoire of works are to be adapted into new limited series for the popular streaming service, with Coben himself serving as executive producer of the shows and steering the ship.
The two new limited series will be titled Missing You and Run Away.
Set to be the ninth and tenth on-screen adaptations produced by the bestselling author through his ongoing creative partnership with Netflix, Missing You and Run Away will see Coben continue to work with local screenwriters from around the world to bring his novels to life on screen in over four different languages.
Following the recent success of Fool Me Once (Top 10 in 91 countries!) we’re excited to announce two new @HarlanCoben limited series adaptations…
MISSING YOU will begin production this spring, and will then be followed by RUN AWAY.
Missing You follows the story of Detective Kat Donovan, who’s fiancé Josh disappeared 11 years ago and has never heard from him since – but now, when swiping profiles on a dating app, she suddenly sees his face and her world explodes all over again.

Josh’s reappearance will force her to dive back into the mystery surrounding her father’s murder, and uncover long-buried secrets from her past.
Run Away, on the other hand, follows Simon, who once had the perfect life – a loving wife and kids, a great job, and beautiful home.

But then, his eldest daughter Paige ran away and everything fell apart, so now, when he finds her, vulnerable and strung-out on drugs in a city park, he finally has the chance to bring his little girl home – however, it turns out she’s not alone, and an argument escalates into shocking violence that will shatter his life all over again.
Simon’s search for his daughter will take him into a dangerous underworld, and reveal deep secrets that could tear his family apart forever.

Coben will be working with critically-acclaimed Hyde-born writer Danny Brocklehurst – who is most-famous for being the creator and writer of Sky One’s Brassic – for the creation of Run Away, and it’ll be the fifth time the pair have collaborated, with their previous successful works including Safe, The Stranger, and Stay Close.

Coben and Brocklehurst most-recently worked together to create Netflix’s newest Coben adaptation, Fool Me Once – which aired globally on the platform at the start of this year.
The news of these two new Coben limited series being commissioned also comes after the Michelle Keegan-led drama series shot to the top of Netflix’s most-streamed charts in the days after it was released on New Year’s Day (1 January).
It’s amassed 61 million views worldwide in its first two weeks, reached the top 10 in 91 countries, and has had people sharing their thoughts all over social media.

It’s been confirmed that filming for Missing You will commence in the UK in spring 2024, but we’re still yet to hear when Run Away will hit our TV screens, so keep your eyes peeled.

Release date set for Oasis reunion tour documentary by Peaky Blinders creator
Danny Jones
If you had any doubt that the upcoming Oasis reunion shows weren’t going to be heavily documented, you’re an absolute fool. However, we’ll admit we weren’t expecting to hear the creator of Peaky Blinders‘ name connected to the tourthat’s soon set to be relived in theatres.
Yeah, as in the Brummies with the flat caps on the telly – them ones.
That’s right, the same man who brought Tommy Shelby and Birmingham’s most infamous gang to our screens has been overseeing the major documentary project, which will chronicle the return of the Gallagher brothers and put the best bits on film.
Better still, now we have a full release date and know where it will be shown, including information about its cinematic and streaming rollout.
The great wait is over.

That’s right, while there still isn’t a set title for the doc (we’re pretty sure it’s a very Ronseal kind of deal), we do know it’ll be coming not just to cinemas but even IMAX theatres.
Landing on 11 September 2026, just over a year on from when the boys got back on the road and gave us one of the greatest summers ever, it will launch on Hulu and Disney+ internationally.
With additional direction from Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, the Steven Knight-produced project is arguably set to be just as big a cultural event as the Live 25′ themselves.
Knight, who was confirmed as the co-creator, writer and producer of the Oasis ‘Live ’25’ world tour documentary movie back in March, recently teased that the initial rough edit was around four hours long.
While we doubt it’ll remain so significant in length, who knows how it will compare to the likes of Supersonic or the Knebworth documentaries?

It’s worth noting to begin with that, besides the BBC’s blockbuster gangster series, which is soon to be followed up with the franchise’s first feature film on Netflix, Knight does have some background in music-related media.
The 65-year-old created the six-part BBC drama, This Town, which revolves around the rise of ska and the ‘two-tone’ revival movement in the Midlands during the 1970s; he also wrote the script for the 2024 opera biopic, Maria, starring Angelina Jolie.
Southern and Lovelace are also two of the names behind the LCD Soundsystem film, Shut Up And Play The Hits, which covers frontman James Murphy’s final gig as part of the band at Madison Square Garden in New York.
