Presumed Innocent Renewed for Season 2 at Apple TV+ — But There’s a Twist
Presumed Innocent‘s inaugural, Jake Gyllenhaal-fronted case is poised to close later this month, but the series itself is not adjourning. (Legal puns, FTW!)
Apple TV+ announced Friday that the courtroom thriller — based on Scott Turow’s New York Times bestselling novel — has been renewed for Season 2, which the streamer confirms will revolve around a “brand new case.” However, a show rep declined to say whether the new season will feature an entirely new cast.

Gyllenhaal will at the very least return behind-the-scenes, once again serving as an exec producer alongside David E. Kelley, J.J. Abrams, Rachel Rusch Rich, Dustin Thomason and Matt Tinker.
Presumed Innocent‘s first season has been a commercial hit for Apple TV+, ranking as the service’s No. 1 most viewed drama of all time. Reviews have been strong as well, with TVLine’s Dave Nemetz calling it “a sleek and riveting legal thriller” buoyed by “great performances” and Kelley’s “courtroom expertise.”
In addition to Gyllenhaal, the Season 1 ensemble includes Ruth Negga, Peter Sarsgaard, Bill Camp, Elizabeth Marvel, Lily Rabe and Noma Dumezweni.
The Season 1 finale drops July 24.
