Sam Worthington to Star in Netflix’s New Thriller ‘I Will Find You’

Sam Worthington, best known for his role in Avatar, is set to star in Netflix’s upcoming limited series I Will Find You. The show is based on the bestselling novel by Harlan Coben.

The eight-episode series follows David Burroughs, a man wrongly convicted of murdering his own son. Though he knows he didn’t commit the crime, he struggles with guilt every day. But when he receives shocking evidence that his son might still be alive, he makes a daring escape from prison to uncover the truth.

This marks the first U.S. adaptation of a Coben novel under his exclusive deal with Netflix. The show was co-created by Coben and Robert Hull (God Friended Me), who also serves as the showrunner. They are joined by executive producers Bryan Wynbrandt, Steven Lilien, and John Weber.

Netflix has already had success with other Harlan Coben adaptations, including Fool Me Once, The Stranger, Stay Close, and Gone for Good. These shows have been made in different languages and countries, proving Coben’s worldwide popularity.

Sam Worthington continues to take on major roles, recently starring in Kevin Costner’s Horizon movies. He is represented by WME, Anonymous Content, and Hansen Jacobson Teller.

Netflix’s I Will Find You promises to be a gripping thriller that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
