Coben recently revealed why his most famous character, Myron Bolitar, has not yet appeared on screen, saying that he's yet to spot the right actor for the former basketballer-turned-detective.
He said he had a very specific idea of the character in his head and that no one has fit the bill so far, even as Netflix is reported to be in early development on a Bolitar series.
