On Wednesday Netflix announced The Lincoln Lawyer is officially coming back for Season 3. This season will follow Michael Connelly’s fifth book of the Lincoln Lawyer novel series. The fifth book, The Gods of Guilt will see Manuel Garcia-Rulfo reprise his role as Mickey Haller. Jazz Raycole, Becki Newton, and Yaga DaCosta will also reprise their roles. One of the main cat members, Neve Campbell’s name wasn’t mentioned. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Neve Campbell won’t return to The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3. In Season 2, Neve Campbell’s character Maggie McPherson had a small role. From the perspective of The Gods of Guilt, her absence in Season 3 makes sense. However, the report did indicate that Campbell can return in a future season.
Executive producers and co-showrunners Ted Humphrey and Daily Rodriguez talked about the show. “The audience response to the show has been so gratifying and wonderful, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to dive back into Michael Connelly’s universe and bring Mickey Haller and his world to the screen again.”
“We are thrilled to bring back The Lincoln Lawyer for a third season,” added Peter Friedlander, Vice President of Scripted Series, Netflix, Canada and US. “Ted Humphrey and Dailyn Rodriguez have taken us deeper into Mickey Haller’s world, building out characters and stories that have connected with our global audience, and we look forward to seeing what they have in store for everyone’s favorite lawyer. The show continues to top our global lists and it’s a testament to the work from a creative powerhouse team including Michael Connelly, David E. Kelley, Ross Fineman, and our partners at A+E Studios.”
About The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3
The setup for The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3 began in the finale of Season 2. “The season ends with a cliffhanger that clearly tees up the next season. The last 10 minutes of this season are the first couple of chapters of the next book that we’re gonna adapt,” Humphrey told Collider in a recent interview.
“We had begun the process of that. We had convened our writers and began the process of that when the writer’s strike happened. Hollywood is obviously in a state of crisis right now. We obviously had to stop, as soon as the strike happened, but we’re very excited to get back to that, as soon as the strike is resolved. We are not officially greenlit for a third season. Netflix won’t do that until after the numbers come out from the second season, but everything looks positive. It was a vote of confidence in the show that they greenlit a writer’s room for a third season. So, we know where we’re going, We know what we’re basing it on.”
With the ongoing Hollywood strikes, there is no certainty when the new season will begin.
