Just six weeks after its debut, I Will Find You has achieved a monumental milestone: it has officially entered Netflix's all-time top 10 list of most-watched English-language series. The Harlan Coben adaptation, starring Sam Worthington and Britt Lower, has overtaken this year's His & Hers, which starred Jon Bernthal and Tessa Thompson and had amassed 98 million views in its first three months. I Will Find You needed less than two months to surpass that figure, cementing its status as a streaming phenomenon.
This marks the 13th Netflix series based on a Harlan Coben bestseller, and the streamer is clearly eager to keep the partnership going. Following the success of I Will Find You, Netflix has green-lit an adaptation of Coben's longest-running book series, Myron Bolitar—a move that will surely delight fans of the author's intricate thrillers.
According to Netflix's latest viewership report, which tracked the week of July 20 to July 26, I Will Find You remained the number one English-language title globally. This was the fifth time it achieved that feat; the only week it surrendered the top spot was two weeks prior, when Little House on the Prairie took over. The show's sustained dominance is a testament to its gripping narrative and the star power of its lead, Sam Worthington.
Worthington now finds himself in a rare position: he has headlined two of the highest-grossing movies in history—Avatar and Avatar: The Way of Water—and is now at the forefront of one of Netflix's most-watched shows of all time. The all-time list is currently topped by the first season of Wednesday, which boasts over 250 million views.
