Minnie Driver cut a stylish figure on Tuesday, as she was spotted filming in Liverpool with James Nesbitt for Netflix’s latest Harlan Coben series, Run Away.
The British-American actress, 55, who stars as Ingrid Greene in the new series, donned a chic purple coat and beige trousers with white stripes down the sides as she got to work filming.
Joining her on set was James, 60, who is leading the new thriller as Simon Greene, after previously having guest roles in the last two Harlan adaptations.
The actor cut a smart casual figure in a stylish brown suede jacket, shirt, and blue jeans as they strolled down the street.
The Cold Feet star was first spotted on the set of the highly-anticipated series last month, filming dramatic scenes with Minnie in Manchester.
He was seen covered in a spray of fake blood and looking panicked and shocked as the actress lay strapped on a gurney with an oxygen mask.

The scene appeared to be showing the aftermath of a major car accident, with Minnie being rushed into an ambulance by paramedics, and her body double spotted on set with blood on her neck.
In between shooting, the Good Will Hunting star was all smiles as she and James wrapped up in long padded coats and gloves and chatted away behind the scenes.
The star-studded cast of the series also includes Gavin & Stacey icon Ruth Jones, Harry Potter star Alfred Enoch, and Game of Thrones’ Lucian Msamati.
It marks the return of Netflix’s popular adaptations of Harlan’s book, following the huge success of Fool Me Once, The Stranger, Stay Close and Missing You.
Run Away will follow Simon, a seemingly lucky man with a lovely wife and kids, a great job and a beautiful home. But then his eldest daughter Paige runs away, and everything falls apart.
When Simon finds Paige, vulnerable and strung out on drugs in a city park, he finally has the chance to bring his little girl home.
Only Paige doesn’t necessarily want to be saved, and Simon’s mission leads him to a dangerous underworld of violence and secrets that could tear his family apart forever.
Summing up the story for Netflix’s Tudum, Harlan said: ‘Run Away is about family — about what we will do to keep our family intact, what secrets we keep within our family, and what secrets we keep as a family.’
To complete her ensemble, she sported a pair beige wide-leg trousers, which featured white stripes on the sides, and wore a stylish purple turtleneck jumper

‘Every time you walk past the house, there’s a whole universe that goes on behind that door and none of us have a clue what it is.’
