Michelle Keegan earned £750,000 last year after taking on a key role at the bank. Fool Me Ones topped Netflix worldwide.
Now the actress who wowed TV bosses in Harlan Cobain's former adaptation of Coronation Street is set for another lucrative role on Netflix.
The American novelist tells the Mail that he is looking forward to working with the 37-year-old actress again because “the public loves her”.
Coban said, “We want Michelle to come back.” I think what Michelle has, aside from tremendous talent and everything else, is true authenticity.
'I think people, the public, love her, people want to follow her life because they feel there is compassion and tenderness. It's really her, she's really real.'
Michelle Keegan's bank balance increased by £750,000 last year after landing the lead role in Netflix's global number one hit Fool Me Once (pictured).
The former Coronation Street actress is set for another lucrative role at Netflix after impressing TV bosses with a Harlan Cobain adaptation.
The streamer's most-watched show in 2024 is expected to make more money this year after Fool Me Ones, released in January, was watched by 108 million viewers worldwide.
It will be good news for Keegan, whose production company Rosia Promotions had a bumper year in 2023 with the signing of a deal with Netflix that increased from £2.85m to £3.6m.
Another big payday is expected this year after Fool Me Ones, released in January, was watched by 108 million viewers worldwide. It became the streamer's most-watched show in 2024, surpassing the likes of Bridgerton and Baby Reindeer.
Keegan played Maya Stern, a widow whose husband Joe appears to have returned from his death, and Joanna Lumley played her mother-in-law.
The chart-topper is the streamer's eighth Coban adaptation under its multimillion-dollar deal with Netflix, which will see at least two thrillers, Missing You and Run Away, stream on the platform over the next year.
Cobain's novels are set in the United States, but in his adaptations he often relocates to the United Kingdom with British talent.
The author has the habit of using his favorite actors over and over again.
Missing You, due out next year, stars Richard Armitage in his fourth Cobán adaptation and James Nesbitt in his second.
Michelle, who has been married to Mark Wright since 2015, appears to have spent some of her newfound wealth already married.
Michelle's new show, Missing You, will premiere next year and will star Richard Armitage in his fourth Cobán adaptation and James Nesbitt in his second.
The couple recently shared a look at their Essex mansion's latest renovation after transforming their living room.
They completely renovated their £3.5 million home in 2019 and have been sharing incredible updates on their Instagram account.
Their latest project, shared in the Home Account story, reveals a neutrally decorated living space with modern furniture and a large screen TV.
The bright living room has a large picture window letting in plenty of light into the stunning space of your home.
A cream sofa covered with plush cushions and faux fur blankets faces a television screen and stone coffee table.
Other in-room dining options include two armchairs in the center of the room and a table by the window.
The centerpiece of the room is a striking bubble-style ceiling lamp, while other accessories include plants, candles and books.
Wright and Keegan purchased the sofa and chairs from Misura, a custom furniture company that previously made other pieces for their home.
