The Lincoln Lawyer Images Reveal First Look at Netflix TV Show Adaptation

screenrant.com:

First look images reveal David E. Kelley’s Netflix series adaptation of The Lincoln Lawyer. Matthew McConaughey played unorthodox attorney Mickey Haller in the 2011 film based on Michael Connelly’s novel. For the upcoming Netflix show based on the second book in Connelly’s Lincoln Lawyer series, Haller is played by The Magnificent Seven’s Manuel Garcia-Rulfo.

Taking over for a performer as well-known as McConaughey may indeed be a daunting task for Garcia-Rulfo to tackle, but he’ll have great support from executive producer Kelley, who of course has loads of hit shows to his name including renowned legal dramas like L.A. Law, The Practice and Boston Legal. In addition to Garcia-Rulfo, Kelley’s Lincoln Lawyer stars Scream’s Neve Campbell as Haller’s ex-wife Maggie McPherson (the role played by Marisa Tomei in the 2011 film adaptation), along with Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole and Angus Sampson. The cast is rounded out by Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Christopher Gorham, Krista Warner, Michael Graziadei and Jamie McShane.

Kelley’s take on The Lincoln Lawyer was of course supposed to be delivered a year ago but COVID-related delays put principal photography on hold until March of 2021, with filming continuing until August. Indeed the show’s path to the screen was rocky even before these delays, as it was at one point dropped by original network CBS, leaving Netflix to pick up the ball.The
