Unsurprisingly, the series was quickly renewed for a season 2 - but there was a slight wrinkle.
It also changed the ending, meaning a straight adaptation of Turow's follow-up book, 2010's Innocent, might have been more tricky.
But who is set to star in the new run, what will it be about and when can fans expect it to be released on Apple TV+? Read on for everything we know about Presumed Innocent season 2.
When could Presumed Innocent season 2 be released?
Given this, we'd imagine that it's gearing up to go into production sometime in the next couple of months and, as such, it seems likely that the new episodes will be released at some point in 2026.
We will keep this page updated as and when we get any further information.
What will Presumed Innocent season 2 be about?
Deadline has reported that rather than continuing with more stories from other novels by Scott Turow, the author of Presumed Innocent, the new season will be based on Jo Murray's new legal thriller novel Dissection of a Murder, which has not even been released yet.
The official synopsis for the book says: "A dead judge. A silent defendant. And a courtroom full of liars. When Leila Reynolds is handed her first murder case, she’s shocked at how high-profile it is: the murder of a well-respected, well-known judge.
"To make things worse, he’s refusing to talk. How is she supposed to prove herself on what appears to be an unwinnable case? Losing is not an option. She must find the most persuasive argument. Trials aren’t won by convincing judges or fellow barristers – they’re all about convincing a jury."
"Suddenly, Leila finds herself fighting not only to keep Jack out of prison, but also to keep her own secrets buried. It’s true what they say – there are two sides to every story. Guilty or not guilty? You decide..."
Who will star in Presumed Innocent season 2?
According to Variety, the Superman star will be taking on the central role of Leila, filling the shoes of Jake Gyllenhaal after he led season 1.
Stars who could potentially return in this sort of format could include Bill Camp, O-T Fagbenle, Nana Mensah or Elizabeth Marvel.
He said: "I’m not really that interested in sequels. I think I’ve only ever done one season of anything… I think I’m a one-season person. I tell my kids this sometimes, maybe I’ve done 90 [or] 100 different things over the years between movies, TV shows and plays. I say, 'I’m very good at saying hello and saying goodbye.'
"I’ve actually found that acting has been really valuable in terms of just being a person, and I think part of it is that I’ve had all of these really interesting experiences not just playing different characters but collaborating with different people."
