Richard Armitage (“The Hobbit” trilogy), Michelle Keegan (“Brassic”) and “Absolutely Fabulous” star Joanna Lumley are set to lead the cast of new Netflix series “Fool Me Once.” Based on the Harlan …
novel of the same name and produced by Nicola Shindler’s Quay Street Productions, the eight-part series stars Keegan as Maya Stern, a woman who is struggling to resume her life after her husband Joe is brutally murdered. But things take a turn after Maya spots someone on the nanny cam she has installed throughout her home to keep an eye on her young daughter…someone who is supposed to be dead.
“Fool Me Once” is the eighth project to emerge from Coben’s partnership with Netflix, which has seen his works adapted in four languages. Previous collaborations include following “Safe,” “The Stranger” and “Stay Close.” Like previous adaptations, the series will be relocated from the U.S. to the U.K., with the show already in production in Manchester and the Northwest of England.
Coben exec produces alongside Shindler, series writer Danny Brocklehurst and Richard Fee. Charlotte Coben, Yemi Oyefuwa, Nina Metivier and Tom Farrelly are also writing on the show while “Outlander” helmer David Moore will lead direct. Nimer Rashed will direct the series’ second block.“I’m thrilled and honoured to once again be collaborating with my uber-talented partners Danny, Nicola and Richard,” said Coben.
Shindler and Fee, who exec produce for Quay Street, added: “Harlan is a master of twists and turns that are impossible to predict, which is what makes adapting his books for television impossible to resist! ‘Fool Me Once’ is no different, we’re incredibly excited to bring the story to life with an all-star cast.”
