KJ Apa Joins the Cast of Netflix’s ‘Myron Bolitar’

KJ Apa has landed a new role. The actor is set to join Colin Woodell and Diane Guerrero in Netflix’s Myron Bolitar.

From Harlan Coben and Co-Showrunners David E. Kelley & Kyle Long, “After an injury ends his NBA dreams, Myron Bolitar reinvents himself as a sports agent — using charm, smarts, and a ruthless partner to navigate the high-stakes and dirty world of sports, where saving his clients often means risking himself.”

Based on Coben’s longest-running series spanning 12 books, Woodell will star as “Myron Bolitar — A former college basketball star whose NBA career came to an abrupt end, Myron reinvented himself as a sports agent. He built his agency – MB Sports – on an unwavering belief in overlooked athletes, with the same heart and fierce competitive drive he once brought to the court. ”

KJ Apa will play “Win Lockwood — Born into extraordinary privilege, Win walked away from the family business to build something of his own alongside his closest friend, Myron. Unflappable, endlessly resourceful, and fiercely loyal, he’s the one Myron turns to when clients find themselves in trouble.”

Diana Guerrero will play “Esperanza Diaz — A former professional wrestler turned Myron’s indispensable right hand at MB Sports. Armed with endless grit and razor-sharp wit, Esperanza is the backbone of the agency and the steady force keeping both Myron and clients in check.”

As someone who loves the series, I can’t wait to see it come to life on screen. I hope they don’t screw it up!
