Netflix’s Myron Bolitar Adds Jabari Banks, Chloe Fineman, and More to Cast
Netflix is gearing up for another book-to-screen adaptation, this time looking to author Harlan Coben’s Myron Bolitar series for inspiration.
Already in the works at Netflix, David E. Kelley (Margo’s Got Money Troubles, Big Little Lies) and Kyle Long (Suits, Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G) will serve as showrunners, writers, and executive producers for the Myron Bolitar adaptation, which will also feature a cast ensemble you’ll be more than familiar with.

The upcoming series is part of the streamer’s current partnership with Coben, which, since 2018, has adapted more than 13 books for the screen. His most recent adaptation, I Will Find You, recently became Netflix’s biggest original scripted debut of 2026.

What will Netflix’s Myron Bolitar be about?
As mentioned above, Netflix’s Myron Bolitar show will be based on American author Harlan Coben’s thriller book series of the same name, which currently spans 12 books. The first book in the series, Deal Breaker, came out in 1995, while the latest addition is 2024’s Think Twice. The series follows the story of the titular Myron Bolitar, a fictional former pro basketball player.
As shared by Netflix, the official logline for the show is as follows: “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 and dirty world of sports, where saving his clients often means risking himself.”
It’s unclear whether the show will adapt each book in order or pull from multiple books. However, so you get the gist, the first book in the series serves as an introduction to Bolitar, who finds himself in the middle of an embroilment after one of his star athletes and clients gets a call from his presumed-dead girlfriend. The book’s synopsis reads: “Trying to unravel the truth about a family’s tragedy, a woman’s secret, and a man’s lies, Myron is up against the dark side of his business—where image and talent make you rich, but the truth can get you killed.”
