Netflix has announced plans to adapt two additional novels from best-selling author Harlan Coben into limited series, following the global success of “Fool Me Once.” The streaming giant is set to bring Coben’s “Missing You” and “Run Away” to life, with both series being produced by Quay Street Productions. Coben himself will carry out the role of executive producer via his company, Final Twist Productions.
The adaptations come hot on the heels of Netflix’s release of “Fool Me Once,” which premiered on January 1. According to the streaming platform, the series garnered an impressive 61 million views worldwide in its first two weeks and trended in the top 10 in 91 different countries.
