Netflix has confirmed the cast for its upcoming thriller series 'The Woods,' based on Harlan Coben's 2020 novel. The series features Tom Bateman, known for his role in 'The Love Hypothesis,' and Michelle Keegan, famous for 'Brassic' and a previous Coben adaptation. The ensemble cast also includes comedian Tom Allen, Mandeep Dhillon, James Buckley, and Pearce Quigley. The narrative follows barrister Paul 'Cope' Copeland, portrayed by Bateman, who embarks on a quest to find his sister Camille, who disappeared 20 years ago. As new evidence emerges, Cope reconnects with his first love, Lucy Silverfield (played by Keegan), to uncover long-buried secrets. The series is produced by Quay Street Productions in Manchester and marks Netflix's 14th adaptation of Coben's works, following successful titles like 'Missing You' and 'Gone For Good.' While no release date has been set, previous adaptations have typically premiered in January.
