She has been hard at work filming the new Harlan Coben drama The Woods. 

And Michelle Keegan was back at it again on Tuesday as she stepped out with her co-star Tom Bateman while looking chic in a pared-back look.   

She wore a striped waistcoat-style top with straight-leg jeans and a pair of trendy loafers while she went for casual chic. 

The stunner wore her brunette locks piled high as she clutched a vast water cup amid the ongoing heatwave during the exterior shots. 

She was then seen leaning against the window of a cafe with her co-star Tom, who was looking dashing in a light blue T-shirt.  

The star recently said it was 'daunting going back to work' to film her ITV series The Blame, after she welcomed her first child, daughter Palma, with her husband Mark Wright in March 2025, after they tied the knot in 2015. 

As she prepared to return to the screen in the six-part drama series, which airs this autumn, Michelle revealed her co-workers were really 'supportive' on set.

Speaking at the ITV showcase with host Graham Norton, she said: 'Coming back to work after having a baby is quite daunting.

'But the production were so supportive and I was so looked after and it was like working with family.'

Since wrapping work on The Blame, Michelle has begun filming her new collaboration with author Harlan Coben, this time an adaptation of his novel The Woods.

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 widow Maya Stern.

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.'

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.

'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.'
