It香蕉视频直播檚 Netflix香蕉视频直播檚 resolution every new year to give viewers a headscratcher in January.

Since 2020, the streamer has released a U.K. miniseries based on thriller book by Harlan Coben over the holidays. It seems to have paid off: 香蕉视频直播淔ool Me Once,香蕉视频直播� starring Michelle Keegan, Adeel Akhtar and Joanna Lumley, launched this past January and became what Netflix says was one of their most watched shows of the year, amassing 108 million views.

2025香蕉视频直播檚 seasonal suspense series is 香蕉视频直播淢issing You,香蕉视频直播� based on Coben香蕉视频直播檚 2014 New York Times bestseller. It stars Rosalind Eleazar (香蕉视频直播淪low Horses香蕉视频直播�) as Detective Inspector Kat Donovan, a police officer who specializes in finding missing people 香蕉视频直播� apart from the fiance that vanished 11 years earlier.

香蕉视频直播淭hey know Jan. 1 is the sweet spot for them,香蕉视频直播� says actor Richard Armitage, who has appeared in each winter Coben adaptation, which relocates the stories from the books香蕉视频直播� America to the north of England. 香蕉视频直播淧eople have ownership over the show now, so like, 香蕉视频直播業 want my Harlan Coben show on New Year香蕉视频直播檚 Day.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 perfect timing for the release, to be honest,香蕉视频直播� says co-star Ashley Walters. 香蕉视频直播淢ost people are going to be hung over or, you know, just not have anything to do with the day.香蕉视频直播�

The show opens with the shock of Donovan香蕉视频直播檚 ex-fiance (Walters) popping up on a dating app, over a decade after she came home one day to find him gone.

Another star, Jessica Plummer, isn香蕉视频直播檛 a fan of those who disappear without saying goodbye, though.

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檇 just feel too guilty,香蕉视频直播� she admits, calling it 香蕉视频直播渃owardly and lazy 香蕉视频直播� sorry Richard!香蕉视频直播�

Eleazar promises twists and turns along the way, adding that the actors weren香蕉视频直播檛 initially given the final two scripts and had to turn to the book to find out what happens.

Coben 香蕉视频直播渞eally is a genius at taking you up the wrong track,香蕉视频直播� says Eleazar. 香蕉视频直播淵ou香蕉视频直播檙e so sure that this time you香蕉视频直播檝e got it right and it香蕉视频直播檚 this person or this thing, but you are inevitably always wrong.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淚 would love to know, actually, how he starts a book, you know? Does it start with an idea or does he think of the most inconceivable idea and go, 香蕉视频直播楾hat香蕉视频直播檚 how it香蕉视频直播檚 going to end香蕉视频直播�?香蕉视频直播� she adds.

Armitage agrees that 香蕉视频直播淢issing You香蕉视频直播� does justice to the 香蕉视频直播渉air-raising香蕉视频直播� shock ending of the book; 香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 like the rug is pulled away at the last minute.香蕉视频直播�

And while audiences at home can binge-watch the whole five-part series as 2025 is still finding its feet, the cast will be busy with a variety of pastimes.

Lenny Henry, who portrays Kat香蕉视频直播檚 father, jokes that he usually wakes up to a new year surrounded by roast potatoes, while wearing pajamas.

Armitage likes to be outside and start fresh by skiing down a mountain, while Eleazar has plans to celebrate in style: She and a group of friends have a tradition where they rent a castle and dress up in themed costumes.

Past New Year香蕉视频直播檚 Eve parties have included donning 18th century garb in France and last year香蕉视频直播檚 Versace-themed fete.

香蕉视频直播淚 will be celebrating and really hoping that everyone loves this show on the 1st,香蕉视频直播� she says.
