- Logan Browning plays FBI agent Sarah Greer in Netflix’s 'I Will Find You,' a role that includes death-defying stunts like leaping between Boston rooftops, which she jokes proves she can 'hop buildings.'
- Sam Worthington taught Browning how to reload a firearm on set, despite his character rarely using guns, showcasing his hands-on expertise during filming of a key action sequence.
- Harlan Coben’s 'I Will Find You' premiered all eight episodes on Netflix, continuing the author’s streak of tightly plotted, bingeable thrillers adapted for the streamer.
- Chi McBride co-stars as Max Williams, Sarah’s father and FBI partner, a dynamic Browning acknowledges would be implausible in real life but accepts as part of the show’s dramatic license.
- David Burroughs, played by Sam Worthington, is a wrongfully convicted man on the run to clear his name after being sentenced for his son’s murder, driving the central mystery of the series.
- Sarah Greer ultimately shifts from pursuing David to defending him, culminating in her helping to expose the truth and exonerate him by the series’ end.
Why it matters: The series hinges on a character-driven reversal—Sarah’s transformation from hunter to ally—that redefines the stakes for both her and David. This pivot, foreshadowed in their rooftop confrontation, gives emotional weight to the action and sets the show apart from standard procedural fare, making trust and redemption central to the thriller’s payoff.
