Last May when Netflix premiered its legal-drama series The Lincoln Lawyer, based on a series of novels by Michael Connelly, audiences were hooked. After all, who wouldn’t love the comeback story of Mickey Haller (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), a courtroom-savvy LA criminal defense lawyer working out of the back seat of his Lincoln.
The show skyrocketed to Netflix’s Top 10 in 90 countries, and the appearance of a mysterious tattooed man in the last episode left fans craving more.
Will there be season 2 of Lincoln Lawyer?
Like the first season, The Lincoln Lawyer season 2 will be based on one of the six novels in Connelly’s Lincoln Lawyer series, in this case, book 4, The Fifth Witness. In that storyline, Mickey has shifted to foreclosure defense law to make ends meet… until one of his clients is accused of murder.
However, we do expect some changes in the Netflix adaptation to modernize the story, as was the case in season 1, which was based on book 2, The Brass Verdict.
