AlthoughMissing Youhas a significantly lower Rotten Tomatoes score than other Harlan Coben adaptations,Netflix is moving forward with their next Harlan Coben TV show, an adaptation of his novelCaught.

8 Biggest Changes Netflix’s Missing You Makes To Harlan Coben’s Book
Netflix’s Missing You is based on Harlan Coben’s best-selling novel of the same name, but it makes some significant changes to the source material.
Missing Youdiffers fromCaughtin several ways besides their production origins.Caught’s cast list will be significantly longer thanMissing YoubecauseCaughthas many more characters.Caughthas a more extended cast of characters because the narrative follows a small New Jersey town in the wake of Haley McWaid’s disappearance, whereasMissing Youfocuses on Detective Kat Donovan’s investigation of her ex-fiancé’s disappearance while reconciling the missing pieces of her father’s murder. However, bothCaughtandMissing Youexplore unexpected mysteries that turn the characters' worlds upside down.
Caught Will Premiere On Netflix In 2025
There Is No Official Release Date Yet
Caughtwill have six episodes of 45 minutes each, but the show’s premiere date is still unknown. BothNetflix and Harlan Coben confirmed thatCaughtwill be released in 2025; otherwise, there is no clear indication of when the show will premiere. Production onCaughtbegan on June 12, 2025. On June 06, 2025, Haddock Films posted onInstagramthat production had finished filming the first part ofCaught. On June 09, 2025, producer Vanessa Ragone posted a behind-the-scenes editing tidbit onInstagram,suggesting that filming has long concluded.
Furthermore,Netflix has many exciting TV shows coming in 2025, soCaught’s release date will have to work around the streaming platform’s biggest releases—namely,Youseason 5,Squid Gameseason 3,Wednesdayseason 2, andStranger Thingsseason 5. Many of these big TV shows will be released in the latter half of 2025, which means thatCaught’s release date might be around the corner. Therefore, a release date in March or April is a real possibility for this next adaptation of Harlan Coben’s bestselling novel.
