‘Vanished’: Kaley Cuoco’s New Thriller Series Heads to MGM+!!

Earlier in 2025, it was announced that The Big Bang Theory favorite Kaley Cuoco‘s latest project, a four-episode thriller series titled Vanished, would be heading to Prime Video. However, there was a catch, with the series having only been picked up by the streamer in Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, after many months of waiting, Cuoco fans from the US can rest assured that they will be able to catch her latest eye-catching project in 2026, with the rights having been acquired by MGM+, who are also owned by Amazon.

Alongside Peaky Blinders alum Sam Claflin, Cuoco stars in Vanished as Alice Monroe, whose, according to the synopsis, “romantic French vacation becomes a dangerous mystery when boyfriend Tom Parker vanishes from a train to Arles, forcing her to uncover hidden truths about his past.” With a February 2026 release window set for the series’ MGM+ US release, there really is not long to wait before Cuoco and Claflin team up alongside Karin Viard and Matthias Schweighöfer in the series created by David Hilton and Preston Thompson and written by the latter. About the streamer’s acquisition of Vanished, MGM+ head Michael Wright said in a statement:

“We are thrilled to make MGM+ the home for Vanished in the U.S. This exciting and surprising mystery thriller features an exceptional cast, led by Kaley Cuoco and Sam Claflin, and unfolds against the stunning, cinematic backdrop of France. Vanished is a perfect fit with the MGM+ brand that showcases classic Hollywood storytelling for a modern audience.”

What Is Kaley Cuoco’s Most Recent Role?

Since The Big Bang Theory, Cuoco‘s career might have flown under some radars due to the consistent popularity of the sitcom, but her latest project was certainly one of her best post-Penny roles. Peacock’s dark comedic thriller, Based on a True Story, features Cuoco starring alongside Chris Messina in a story that brilliantly satirizes America’s current true crime obsession. Earning plenty of praise, including a strong 78% critics’ score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Based on a True Story is the perfect watch for anyone waiting for Vanished‘s arrival. The synopsis for the series reads, “Three strangers join forces to capitalize on America’s obsession with true crime and make their dreams come true.”
