Harlan Coben’s next adaptation has found more stars to join its ever-expanding cast list, which is led by the previously announced Sam Worthington. Titled I Will Find You, also another Netflix project, its latest additions include Britt Lower (Severance), Milo Ventimiglia (This is Us), Erin Richards (The Crown) and Logan Browning (Dear White People), as announced by the streamer on social media. While the series is still a work in progress with no arrival date set yet, it has been confirmed that there’ll be eight episodes, all adapted by Robert Hull (Quantum Leap) from Coben’s novel of the same name.
“Britt Lower hive please rise,” Netflix penned on X. “Britt plus Milo Ventimiglia, Logan Browning, and Erin Richards join Sam Worthington in I WILL FIND YOU — a prison break thriller series from Harlan Coben about an innocent father [David Burroughs portrayed by Worthington] who while serving life for the murder of his own son receives evidence that his child may still be alive.” In addition to adapting the series, Hull serves as showrunner and co-creator with Coben. The author will also serve as executive producer through his company, Final Twist Productions, alongside Hull, Bryan Wynbrandt, Steven Lilien, and John Weber.
What Roles Will The New ‘I Will Find You’ Stars Play?
Production of I Will Find You is scheduled “to start in two to three weeks,” as revealed by Coben about a week ago. In the meantime, here are the roles assigned to the latest cast additions, starting with Lower. According to Netflix, the Severance actor portrays Rachel Mills, David’s (Worthington) ex-sister-in-law and a former decorated reporter whose life fell apart after being fired. When she discovers evidence suggesting an incredible secret, Rachel views it as a once-in-a-lifetime story that could be her ticket back to journalism.
Ventimiglia stars as Hayden, Rachel’s ex-boyfriend, who remains her close friend and confidant. He is from a prominent Boston family and finds purpose in working for his family’s philanthropic foundations. Browning, on the other hand, plays Sarah Greer, a member of the FBI’s Fugitive Task Force in Boston alongside legendary agent Max Williams. Together, they have become a valuable duo for the bureau, catching some of the country’s most notorious fugitives — until the Burroughs case threatens to upend everything they’ve worked for.
Lastly, Richards’ I Will Find You character, Cheryl Dreason, is David’s ex-wife and a talented and compassionate pediatric surgeon. Cheryl still grieves the loss of her son but has worked hard to rebuild her life. When her ex-husband, David, breaks out of prison, long-buried secrets threaten to unravel everything she’s built.
There’s currently no premiere date for I Will Find You. Stay tuned to Collider for more details about this promising series, and check out Netflix‘s casting announcement below.
