A Netflix series based on Harlan Coben‘s Myron Bolitar books has cast three lead roles.
Colin Woodell (Netflix’s Pulse) will play the title role in the series, which centers on the life and career of a sports agent. Riverdale’s KJ Apa and Orange Is The New Black’s Diane Guerrero will also star.
The series marks another chapter in Coben’s long-running partnership with Netflix. Since he signed an overall deal with the streamer in 2018, 13 of the best-selling author’s novels have been adapted into television series, collectively drawing more than 300 million views worldwide since 2023.
The most recent of those, I Will Find You, was the platform’s biggest original scripted debut of 2026, spending the past two weeks at No. 1 on the streamer’s global Top 10 for English-language series and scoring 34 million views in its second week.
According to the official logline: “After an injury ends his NBA dreams, Myron Bolitar reinvents himself as a sports agent — using charm, smarts and a ruthless partner to navigate the high-stakes, dirty world of sports, where saving his clients often means risking himself.”
Apa will play Win Lockwood, who was born into “extraordinary privilege” yet walked away from his family’s wealth to create a life of his own with his good friend, Myron, who leans on him when facing client troubles.
Guerrero plays Esperanza Diaz, a former wrestler who is Myron’s indispensable right hand, keeping everything in order while serving as the backbone for their sports agency.
David E. Kelley and Kyle Long (Suits) will serve as showrunners and executive producers on the series. The show is the latest collaboration between Kelley and Netflix, following Anatomy of a Scandal, A Man in Full, and the The Lincoln Lawyer.
Greg Yaitanes (Presumed Innocent, House of the Dragon) will direct multiple episodes. He also executive produces, along with Matthew Tinker of David E. Kelley Productions, Coben (via his Final Twist Productions) and Rick Muirragui.
