Myron Bolitar Netflix series begins production
Netflix announced that production has started on a new drama series titled Myron Bolitar, adapted from Harlan Coben’s longest‑running book series featuring the titular sports‑agent character. Filming is underway in New York City.
The lead role of Myron Bolitar is played by Colin Woodell, a former college basketball star whose NBA dreams ended, now reinvented as a sports agent. The cast also includes KJ Apa, Diane Guerrero, Jabari Banks, Chloe Fineman, Jamie McShane, Ben McKenzie and a large ensemble. Emmy‑winner David E. Kelley and Kyle Long serve as co‑showrunners, writers and executive producers, while Greg Yaitanes will direct multiple episodes.
The series follows Bolitar navigating the high‑stakes, dirty world of sports, using his charm and a ruthless partner to protect his clients, as described in the official logline.
