Netflix is developing a drama series titled “Myron Bolitar,” with Colin Woodell set to star in the title role. Multiple outlets report that the project is based on Harlan Coben’s long-running “Myron Bolitar” novel collection. Woodell plays Myron Bolitar, described as a former athlete who becomes a sports agent. The series is expected to center on high-stakes professional sports and efforts to protect clients.
Variety, Deadline, and Hollywood Reporter all identify additional lead cast members. KJ Apa is cast as Win Lockwood, while Diane Guerrero is cast as Esperanza Diaz. The Times of India also reports that KJ Apa and Diane Guerrero join the cast.
Deadline and Variety note that Netflix picked up the series and that it was originally announced earlier, with Variety citing an announcement in May as part of Netflix’s upfront presentation to advertisers. The outlets do not provide a release date or detailed plot beyond the sports-agent premise and the source material basis.
