WARNING: This article contains spoilers from The Lincoln Lawyer.
The Lincoln Lawyer will be making a comeback as Netflix gives the hit legal drama the go ahead for a fourth outing.
Just three months after the latest outing from the Manuel Garcia-Rulfo series dropped in full on Netflix, it has been confirmed that The Lincoln Lawyer will be returning for more with season four.
When fans last saw charming lawyer Mickey Haller (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), he was on a high after successfully defending his client Julian La Cosse (Devon Graye) but the finale was flipped on its head in the last moments as he was pulled over by the police and a dead body was discovered in his car.
It was quickly realised that the body was none other than known con artist Sam Scales (Christopher Thornton), who previously featured in the first series of The Lincoln Lawyer – but will Mickey really go down for his murder?
As of yet, there has been no talk of a potential release date for The Lincoln Lawyer season four but it is possible that the show will return sooner rather than later.
This is because the 10-episode series has reportedly been in the works for a while, with production set to begin next month, according to Deadline.
As with the first three seasons, filming for series four will once again take place in Los Angeles which has been making headlines this month following the devastating Palisades and Eaton wildfires.
While Garcia-Rulfo will return as The Lincoln Lawyer himself Mickey Haller, actress Becki Newton is going to be back as Lorna, Jazz Raycole as Izzy and Angus Sampson as Cisco.
Much to fans’ delight, actress Neve Campbell is also set to reprise her role as Maggie McPherson after appearing as a guest star in just two episodes in the third outing.
Her lack of presence in the previous series was consistent with Michael Connelly’s novel The Gods of Guilt which season three is based on, whereas Maggie has a greater presence in the book The Law of Innocence, the source material for the upcoming fourth season.
The Lincoln Lawyer proved to be a big hit when it first debuted in May 2022, spending 12 consecutive weeks in the Netflix Global Top 10.
Season three was also popular with its fanbase with a six-week run in Netflix’s Global Top 10 and scored an impressive 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
In a statement, co-showrunners Humphrey and Dailyn Rodriguezsaid: “We are so excited to tell more stories with Mickey Haller, and especially thrilled to once again be shooting The Lincoln Lawyer in Los Angeles at this time.
“The show is in many ways a love letter to our city and an homage to the great tradition of LA noir, and after the tragedy of the fires we are so grateful and honored to be able to provide some stability and hope to the community.”
The Lincoln Lawyer is available to watch on Netflix.
