Overview
- Osman confirmed on Sunday on BBC’s The One Show that he and Netflix are working on an adaptation of his 2024 novel We Solve Murders.
- Netflix acquired the rights to We Solve Murders before the book's 2024 publication, a step that allows development but does not guarantee a full series.
- Industry reporting says the project remains in development and has not yet been commissioned as a series by Netflix.
- The novel centers on a multi‑generational detective trio—Amy, a private‑security adrenaline seeker; Steve, a retired detective; and Rosie, a bestselling author—and shifts Osman’s work toward younger leads and more action and international locations.
- Osman’s sequel, We Chase Shadows, is due Sept. 15 and could boost momentum for a greenlight, building on Netflix’s earlier adaptation of The Thursday Murder Club.
