Michelle Keegan was seen on the set of new Harlan Coben drama The Woods for the first time on Monday.

The actress, 38, plays Lucy Silverfield in the dark drama and she looked to be having a tense phone call on set in Liverpool.

Michelle wore a red and white tweed jacket teamed with a patterned T-shirt and denim jeans for the day working.

Michelle joins The Love Hypothesis' Tom Bateman in The Woods, adapted from Coben's 2007 novel.

The cast also includes The Inbetweeners star James Buckley and comedian Tom Allen, as well as After Life's Mandeep Dhillon and Small Prophets' Pearce Quigley.

Also starring are the likes of Tracy-Ann Oberman, Rade Sherbedgia, Christopher Harper, Dean Fagan, Charlotte Beaumont and Roger Barclay, among others. 

Michelle has reunited with Harlan for the second Netflix thriller - after Fool Me Once became a huge hit for the streaming service.

She starred opposite Joanna Lumley, Richard Armitage and Adeel Akhtar in Fool Me Once, which debuted in 2024.

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.'

Harlan Coben said in a statement: 'The Woods is a haunting and very personal story. It has everything you expect from us - twisty, turning, gasp-inducing - but at the core is a story of old love and yearning.

'Working with a cast led by Tom Bateman, Michelle Keegan, Mandeep Dhillon, Pearce Quigley, James Buckley, Tom Allen - it's an embarrassment of riches.'

Furthermore, Danny Brocklehurst is adapting the book into an eight-part series for the streamer.

The Woods is set to be Netflix's 14th Coben adaptation, with past projects including Missing You and Gone For Good. 

Earlier this year, Netflix launched fellow Coben series Run Away - with the show racking up an impressive Rotten Tomatoes score.

The murder mystery thriller - which stars Gavin And Stacey's Ruth Jones, as well as James Nesbitt - launched on the streaming giant on New Year's day. 

After binge-watching, fans shared their riveting reviews online - with people saying they were 'already hooked'.

The series is based on Coben's 2019 book - which follows dad Simon and how his world is turned upside down when his daughter Paige goes missing. 

Over on Rotten Tomatoes, fans shared their praise for the series.
