Chloe Fineman has already found her first post-SNL job, landing a regular role on Netflix’s current Myron Bolitar series.

The new cast members will star alongside series stars Colin Woodell, KJ Apa, and Diane Guerrero. Netflix originally announced the series pickup in May as part of a pre-presentation to advertisers. The show is inspired by Harlan Coben’s popular books Myron Bolitar, 12 of which have been published.
The show’s logline reads, “After an injury ends his NBA dreams, Myron Bolitar (Wodell) makes a fresh start as a sports agent. He uses his charm, smarts, and ruthless partners to navigate the high-stakes, dirty world of sports. Saving his clients often means putting himself at risk.”
David E. Kelley and Kyle Long are the writers, showrunners and executive producers of “Myron Bolitar,” with Kelley serving as executive producer through David E. Kelley Productions (DEKP). DEKP’s Matthew Tinker will also executive produce alongside Corben through Final Twist Productions and Rick Muilagi. Greg Yaitains will executive produce and direct multiple episodes.
