Netflix has ordered a Season 5 of its popular legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer, well before fans have even seen Season 4. The early renewal shows the streaming giant’s strong belief in the series’ continued success as it prepares to feature its most intense case yet.
The Lincoln Lawyer renewed for Season 5 at Netflix
The wheels of justice will keep turning for Mickey Haller. Netflix and A+E Studios have officially renewed The Lincoln Lawyer for Season 5, committing to another 10 episodes. This decision comes just weeks before the highly anticipated Season 4 premiere on February 5. Season 5 will draw its inspiration from Resurrection Walk, the seventh novel in Michael Connelly’s bestselling book series.
The show’s creative leaders expressed their enthusiasm to Netflix Tudum. “We’re so excited to share the upcoming fourth season with the audience on February 5th and even more excited to share the news that we’re already hard at work on the next one,” said co-showrunners and executive producers Ted Humphrey and Dailyn Rodriguez. “Season 4 is the most challenging and intensely personal journey we’ve taken Mickey Haller on yet, and we’re thrilled and grateful to be able to continue the ride in Season 5,” they added.
The early renewal allows fans to dive into The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 with the assurance that more is coming. This new season, based on the sixth book, The Law of Innocence, places attorney Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) in the most precarious position of his career. After all, he defends himself in a murder trial, with prosecutor Dana Berg (Constance Zimmer) leading the case.
The upcoming season also introduces a robust slate of new cast members, including Emmanuelle Chriqui and Cobie Smulders, among others. Moreover, fans can’t wait to see as Season 3 ended with a huge cliffhanger where Mickey got arrested after the body of a former client was found in the trunk of his car.
So, with Season 4 set to premiere on February 5 and The Lincoln Lawyer Season 5 already in development, the anticipation is palpable.
