Your first look at Harlan Coben’s latest Netflix thriller has arrived, and it promises to unravel the dark secrets lurking behind closed doors. RUN AWAY launches January 1, 2026, continuing Coben’s tradition of kicking off the new year with edge-of-your-seat mysteries, following in the footsteps of MISSING YOU and FOOL ME ONCE. James Nesbitt, fresh from his starring role in MISSING YOU, returns to Coben’s twisted universe as Simon, a man whose seemingly perfect existence shatters when his eldest daughter Paige vanishes into the darkness.
What makes a family? What secrets do we bury to protect the people we love, and what lies do we tell ourselves to keep everything from falling apart? These are the questions at the heart of RUN AWAY, an eight-episode limited series adapted from Coben’s 2019 novel. Coben himself frames it perfectly: every time you walk past a house, there’s an entire universe unfolding behind that door, and none of us have the slightest clue what’s really happening inside. Simon thought he had it all—the loving wife, the beautiful children, the career, the picture-perfect home. Then Paige ran away, and his carefully constructed world collapsed like a house of cards.
When Simon finally finds his daughter vulnerable and strung out on drugs in a city park, it feels like a second chance, an opportunity to bring his little girl home and piece their shattered family back together. But Paige isn’t alone, and what begins as a desperate attempt at rescue explodes into shocking violence that changes everything. In the aftermath, Simon loses his daughter all over again, and his desperate search to find her will drag him into a dangerous underworld he never knew existed. The deeper he digs, the more he uncovers—untold violence, buried truths, and revelations that threaten to blow his family apart for good.
Nesbitt leads an impressive ensemble cast including Ruth Jones, Minnie Driver, Alfred Enoch, and Lucian Msamati, all of whom appear in the newly released images that tease the thriller’s dark atmosphere and emotional intensity. The series promises to deliver everything fans have come to expect from Coben’s Netflix adaptations: twists that leave you reeling, family dynamics that feel uncomfortably real, and the creeping realization that the people closest to us might be the ones we know the least. This mystery is only just beginning, and when it arrives on New Year’s Day 2026, prepare to question everything you think you know about the secrets families keep.
Paul Mescal and Josh O`Connor are bringing something truly special to THE HISTORY OF SOUND 🎵✨
The two actors sang, reminisced, and opened up about this intimate musical journey. Recording onto actual wax cylinders gave them a tangible connection to their characters` world—the fragility of the medium mirrors the fragility of memory itself.
They revealed which Beatles song their characters would love and discussed the upcoming Beatles biopics. What emerges most powerfully is the chemistry between them—THE HISTORY OF SOUND is ultimately about how music becomes the language through which we express what words cannot capture 🎬🎶

Fresh from wrapping THE IMMORTAL MAN, Cillian Murphy is teaming up with Daniel Craig and Michelle Williams for Damien Chazelle`s mysterious new prison drama—and the buzz is already deafening.
Production starts later this year through Chazelle`s Wild Chickens Productions, with Paramount distributing, but details remain sparse beyond the prison setting.
For Murphy, it`s another chance to do what he does best: portray men under impossible pressure with that signature intensity and precision. A contained prison environment with Craig and Williams?
That`s not just a movie—that`s a masterclass waiting to happen.

🎬 LEGENDARY BELFAST ACTOR CIARÁN HINDS TO RECEIVE LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD 🏆
From Belfast streets to Hollywood`s biggest stages, Ciarán Hinds has given us five decades of unforgettable performances.
The Irish Film & Television Academy is honoring this Oscar-nominated powerhouse with the Irish Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement at this year`s IFTA ceremony on February 20th.
Hinds has worked with everyone from Scorsese to Spielberg, shared the screen with icons like Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett, and earned nominations from the Oscars, Golden Globes, and BAFTAs. Whether in BELFAST (which earned him that Oscar nod), EXCALIBUR, or countless other projects, he`s brought depth, dignity, and raw talent to every role.
With new projects like Netflix`s EAST OF EDEN on the horizon, this Belfast-born legend continues to prove why he`s one of Ireland`s greatest exports to cinema. A true master of the craft. 👏
Congratulations, Ciarán! ✨

From BBC talent show contestant to Golden Globe winner 🏆✨
Jessie Buckley`s journey is pure cinema magic. Eighteen years after appearing on I`D DO ANYTHING as a teenager, she`s now an Oscar frontrunner for her stunning performance as Shakespeare`s wife in HAMNET.
The Irish actor just took home the Golden Globe for best actress in a drama, and with Academy Award nominations dropping January 22, she could become only the fifth Irish actor ever to win that coveted gold statuette.
Even more incredible? Northern Ireland author Maggie O`Farrell, who wrote the original novel, co-wrote the screenplay and could score her own Oscar. A potential double win for the island of Ireland 🇮🇪
Co-produced by Steven Spielberg (who says he "loved" the book) and co-starring Paul Mescal as Shakespeare himself, HAMNET brought together a Chinese director, Irish leads, a Polish crew, and British collaborators to tell the story of England`s most famous writer.
From reality TV to the precipice of Oscar glory—this is what the long game looks like 🎬

After two decades, Cillian Murphy returns to the franchise that helped define his career.
28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE reunites him with visionary director Danny Boyle for what could be their most ambitious collaboration yet—a film that dares to ask not how we survive the apocalypse, but what we become after it.
In theatres Jan 16, this isn`t about spectacle or escalation. It`s about maturity. Boyle has always excelled at capturing collapse—of systems, of morality, of identity—and now he`s exploring what comes after. What happens when two generations must coexist: those who remember the world before, and those who only know ruin.
Murphy`s return feels essential, not nostalgic. His presence grounds the film in its own history while pushing it forward into uncomfortable new territory. This is a story about staying, not running. About building something permanent in a world shaped by impermanence.
If Boyle and Murphy deliver on this thematic promise, THE BONE TEMPLE could stand as one of the franchise`s most thoughtful entries—proof that true horror isn`t infection, but what we become when we try to move on from it.
