A synopsis for The Woods teases: ‘Twenty years ago, Paul ‘Cope’ Copeland’s sister Camille vanished from a summer camp in the woods, a loss that tore his family apart
The inclusion of Tom and James marks a change of pace for the funnymen, who are known for their comedy roles as opposed to gritty dramas.
Harlan created the series and acts as executive producer through his company, Final Twist Productions. On The Woods, he said: ‘It’s one of my most personal novels….
‘Like the story’s hero, Paul Copeland, I worked as a counselor at a sleepaway camp when I was too young for the job.’
Michelle meanwhile said: ‘What’s really exciting for me as an actor is that Lucy is dealing with these deep, personal secrets…
‘So, I get to really explore her vulnerability and that emotional push and pull, which just makes the story feel so real and powerful.’

‘Now a top barrister and devoted single father to ten-year-old daughter Cami, Cope appears to have rebuilt his life.
‘But when the body of a man turns up – twenty years after he was supposedly murdered alongside Camille – Cope becomes convinced his sister may have made it out of the woods alive too.
‘Determined to uncover the truth, Cope reunites with his first love, Lucy Silverfield (Keegan), and together they begin a search for answers, unearthing years of lies, cover-ups, and family secrets that threaten to destroy everything he has built.’
The Netflix show follows 2024’s Fool Me Once, which starred Michelle alongside, Adeel Akhtar, Richard Armitage and Joanna Lumley.
Michelle won mass critical acclaim for the role and was tipped for Hollywood glory for her role as widower Maya Stern.
