Will There Be a Season 2 of ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’ on Netflix?

Okay, so you spent your weekend devouring Netflix’s new legal thriller The Lincoln Lawyer. What do you do? What. Do. You. DO!? Well, you can always stream the original Matthew McConaughey-led film (which is currently on HBO Max), or you can watch a slew of shows that are similar to The Lincoln Lawyer. Prime Video is your best bet, with the streamer currently offering Bosch, Bosch: Legacy, Reacher, Goliath, and Jack Ryan.

What do we know about a potential second season of The Lincoln Lawyer? Officially, we know very little, which makes sense considering the show only debuted a few days ago. Unofficially, we fully expect The Lincoln Lawyer to return for a second season (more on that below).

When will The Lincoln Lawyer Season 2 debut on Netflix? Here’s everything we know so far.

WHO’S IN THE CAST OF NETFLIX’S THE LINCOLN LAWYER?

Along with Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the series also stars Neve Campbell, Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole, Angus Sampson, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, and Christopher Gorham.

HAS NETFLIX RENEWED THE LINCOLN LAWYER FOR SEASON 2?

Nope. But don’t worry, that’s completely normal. The first season just debuted on Netflix last week (May 13, 2022).

WILL THERE BE A SEASON 2 OF THE LINCOLN LAWYER?

*** UPDATE (6/15/22): Yes! Netflix renewed the series for a second season. Per Deadline, the 10-episode second season will be based on the fourth book in The Lincoln Lawyer series (“The Fifth Witness”). ***

*** UPDATE 2 (6/6/23): Part 1 of Season 2 premieres July 6, with Part 2 debuting August 3. ***

While there’s no official information on the show’s future, we expect Netflix to renew The Lincoln Lawyer for a second season. Not only has the series been well-received by critics, but it’s also the number one program on the Netflix’s Top 10. The first season is based on Michael Connelly’s second Lincoln Lawyer novel (The Brass Verdict), so future seasons will likely adapt material from one of the other five novels in the series.

Finally, without going into spoiler territory, the season ends with multiple new developments for Mickey, Maggie, Lorna, and Cisco. The final episode of the season definitely feels like a season finale, as opposed to a series finale. Assuming The Lincoln Lawyer is renewed for another season, we expect Season 2 to premiere in mid-to-late 2023 on Netflix. We’ll update this story as new information becomes available.
