Richard Armitage teases Missing You ending: “The truth is going to hit you in the face”

As a seasoned fan who has binge-watched countless series finales, I can confidently say that Harlan Coben’s thrillers always deliver a knockout punch, and Missing You is no exception. With more plot twists than a bag of pretzels, this five-episode series will leave you guessing until the very end.

Lenny Henry’s reaction to the finale was akin to mine – a mixture of shock, disbelief, and an unprintable acronym. I found myself uttering similar exclamations as I watched the final scenes unfold.

Comparing Missing You to other Coben series is like comparing apples to oranges – each one is unique in its own way. However, this finale stands out for me because of the emotional investment we make in Kat Donovan (played brilliantly by Rosalind Eleazar). As a viewer, you care deeply about her journey and her fate, which makes the revelations all the more impactful.

Richard Armitage, who plays the enigmatic character of Michael, sums it up beautifully: “This one doesn’t disappoint, but I think what’s really different about this one is…I don’t want you to have to face it [the secrets], but you’re going to have to.”

Author Harlan Coben has promised that the ending of Missing You is his most emotional yet. Given his track record, I’d take that claim with a grain of salt – or rather, a box of tissues. As he said, “This is five episodes. Most of the (shows) we’ve done are eight. So it’s a little tighter story.” In other words, brace yourself for an emotional rollercoaster ride that’s over before you know it!

On a lighter note, I can’t help but wonder what Richard Armitage meant when he said, “I feel like that about Rosalind [Eleazar], like I don’t want you to have to face it but you’re going to have to.” I guess we’ll never know the answer to that question, but at least we have Missing You to keep us entertained until the next Harlan Coben series comes along!

In the world of series finales, Harlan Coben thrillers sure know how to pack a punch – or several.

With a surprising number of unexpected turns, the Netflix-adapted series has been met with rave reviews by viewers, and “Missing You” promises yet another thrilling installment.

In a mere five episodes, this fresh series will fly by so quickly that viewers will soon find themselves at its conclusion, an unexpected twist that might just catch everyone off guard.

Lenny Henry further disclosed that his response was something along the lines of: “Wow, really! To me it was more like ‘Oh my goodness, what on earth’! Essentially, I was taken aback, saying ‘What?’

Having spent countless hours immersed in Harlan Coben’s gripping series like “The Stranger,” “Stay Close,” and “Fool Me Once,” I must say that the finale of “Missing You” stands out as a particularly captivating conclusion. While each series offers its unique twists and turns, “Missing You” left me with a sense of profound satisfaction that resonated deeply with my own life experiences. The intricate plot, masterfully crafted characters, and unpredictable ending made it an exceptional addition to Coben’s oeuvre.

As a movie enthusiast, let me tell you, this film doesn’t fall short of expectations. What truly sets it apart, in my opinion, is the deep connection we form with Kat Donovan as a character. It’s not just about her profession; it’s about the profound care we develop for her. The secrets she uncovers, the buried truths that come to light, stir such strong emotions within us. That’s why I believe everyone is left feeling quite emotional at the end.

As someone who has known and cared for Rosalind [Eleazar] deeply, I can’t bear the thought of her having to endure any hardships. Unfortunately, given the circumstances, it seems inevitable that she will face some challenges ahead. My heart aches at the prospect of seeing her struggle, but I know she is strong and resilient, and I have faith that she will persevere.

Previously, author Harlan Coben mentioned that the conclusion of ‘Missing You’ holds a deep emotional impact for him, hinting playfully: “The series consists of five episodes instead of the usual eight, making it a more compact and intense narrative.
