Presumed Innocent is making major changes for Season 2. The next installment of Apple TV+'s hit legal thriller will feature a new female lead, succeeding Jake Gyllenhaal's Rusty Sabich and leaving the Scott Turow universe.

Presumed Innocent Season 1 exhaustively adapted Turow's bestselling novel of the same name, with no obvious path forward for a second season. According to Deadline, Apple TV+ and Warner Bros. TV have acquired the rights to Jo Murray's upcoming debut legal thriller novel Dissection of a Murder. The book follows the female protagonist, Leila Reynolds, who receives her first murder case. Leila is out of her depth, but the defendant only wants her and to make matters worse, her husband is the prosecutor. Soon, Leila is fighting to keep her own secrets buried too. Pam Macmillan will publish Murray's novel in Spring 2026.

After Peacock’s documentary on Elisabeth Finch was released earlier this month, Camilla Luddington says she received requests to comment (including from the doc’s directors and The Hollywood Reporter) on the former Grey’s Anatomy writer who was revealed to have fabricated stories about her life. Luddington, who has played Dr. Jo Wilson on the hit ABC medical drama for 12 seasons, didn’t comment for the doc, nor has she commented since Anatomy of Lies released on Oct. 15. Now, she’s opening up about the experience on her podcast with her former co-star Jessica Capshaw.

“I remember when I heard this documentary was being made, but that actually came after finding out that someone in my daily life at Grey’s had lied about her entire identity — who she was, things that had happened to her. A whole ‘nother person. Whole ‘nother, whole ‘nother,” said Call It What It Is podcast co-host Capshaw,...

Presumed Innocent executive producer/director Greg Yaitanes was a total Jake Gyllenhaal fanboy when he met the actor prior to working with the actor on the hit series. I usually just want to get [the fanboy thing] out of the way, Yaitanes told MovieWeb in a recent interview. Working with Tim Robbins [in Castle Rock], I had to geek out about Shawshank Redemption. But I go to films because Jake's in them. I'll go see Prisoners because he's in it. I'll go see Enemy because he's in it. It attracts me his work and his way of working, which is incredibly natural. There's such an ease that he has in front of the camera that has taken 30 years to craft, and it's beautiful to watch.

Its something to marvel at in Presumed Innocent, in fact. Yaitanes directed about five episodes of the series, which is based on Scott Turow's bestselling 1987 novel, which was...

None of them knew for certain who the killer was until right before we shot the eighth episode, so that was the first shock, admitted Anne Sewitsky, the executive producer and director of Apple TV+s sizzling courtroom thriller, Presumed Innocent. Sewitsky, the Norwegian-American filmmaker whose previous endeavors include Monsterland and Black Mirror, directed the head-turning eighth and final episode of the season. The re-imagined tale, one of Apple TV+'s most-watched dramas, revolved around short-fused prosecutor Rusty Sabich (Jake Gyllenhaal), who becomes a prime suspect in the gritty murder of one of his colleagues (Renate Reinsve).

The series is based on Scott Turow's bestselling 1987 novel, which was adapted into the 1990 film starring Harrison Ford. Sewitsky went on to say that Gyllenhaaland the rest of the cast were very surprised by the big reveal. Spoilers below:

The rest of this article contains spoilers for the finale of Presumed Innocent.

Note: This story contains spoilers from “Presumed Innocent” Episode 8.

In the nail-bitingly tense finale for Apple’s gripping courtroom thriller “Presumed Innocent,” audiences finally learned who killed lawyer Carolyn Polhemus (Renate Reinsve), the former lover of Jake Gyllenhaal’s character Rusty Sabich, who was charged and tried for the murder.

In last week’s episode, Tommy Molto (Peter Sarsgaard), who relished the opportunity to prosecute his longtime rival, was ruled out as a suspect, as director Greg Yaitanes confirmed to TheWrap.

Tommy came home to find someone had left a fireplace poker — possibly the one used to kill Carolyn — in his house, with an unsigned, hand-printed note that read, “Go f—k yourself.”

The Verdict

Despite the probable cause for a mistrial, both sides decided to proceed in the finale, appropriately titled “The Verdict,” with Rusty presenting the summation himself, despite Ray’s reservations.

Rusty told the jury that he...

Quick Links Presumed Innocent Makes Too Many Unnecessary Changes Harrison Fords Portrayal of Rusty Is Better Than Jake Gyllenhaal's The new limited series Presumed Innocent on Apple TV+ stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Renate Reinsve in a gripping murder mystery storyline. While the show updates the story for modern times, many changes seem unnecessary and fail to enhance the overall viewing experience. Jake Gyllenhaal's portrayal of Rusty Sabich falls short compared to Harrison Ford's performance in the 1990 film adaptation.

In the latest limited series from Apple TV+, Presumed Innocent, Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Rusty Sabich, a prosecutor who ultimately becomes the prime suspect in the murder of his colleague, Carolyn Polhemus (Renate Reinsve).

It tells the story of a horrific murder that upends the Chicago Prosecuting Attorneys' office when one of its own is suspected of the crime. The show stars Jake Gyllenhaal and is from legendary TV writer David E.

Presumed Innocent is Apple TV+’s latest series and a must-watch for legal drama fans. Created by Big Little Lies and Boston Legal‘s David E. Kelley, Presumed Innocent is based on a 1987 novel of the same name by Scott Turow; the book was adapted in 1990 with a film of the same name directed by Alan J. Pakula from a screenplay co-written by Frank Pierson and J. Pakula with Harrison Ford playing the leading man Rozat K. “Rusty” Sabich.

Apple TV+’s Presumed Innocent follows the story of Rusty Sabich, a Chicago city prosecutor and a family man who becomes the prime suspect of a colleague’s murder, with whom he had an affair. Where the film showed us this story in completely black and white, the series adaptation plays around in the greys and doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to prove anyone innocent. So, if you...

Jake Gyllenhaal shines in the lead role, but the show struggles to balance courtroom intrigue with domestic strife. Presumed Innocent misses the mark with an unbalanced focus on family dynamics over the legal corruption core of the novel. There are strong performances, yet the series can't decide what it wants to be.

The prospect of David E. Kelley adapting Scott Turow's courtroom thriller novel makes Presumed Innocent an enticing prospect, but sadly it fails to deliver. As with Kelley's recent Netflix show A Man in Full, the AppleTV+ drama draws comparisons with the media circus surrounding former president and convicted felon, Donald Trump. Presumed Innocent centers on a politically motivated trial driven by marital infidelity and impropriety, meaning that the show's June 12 premiere date couldn't be better placed to tap into the zeitgeist.

Presumed Innocent (2024)

CastChase Infiniti, Kingston Rumi Southwick, Nana Mensah, Renate Reinsve, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ruth Negga,...

Apple TV+ has revealed the first teaser-trailer for “Presumed Innocent” starring Jake Gyllenhaal, from Emmy-winning creator David E. Kelley.

Gyllenhaal narrates the trailer as Rusty Sabich, a man seemingly consumed by his love for a woman named Carolyn (Renate Reinsve). “She woke something up inside me,” he says as the footage cuts between his time with her and images of cars and courtrooms and arguments — clearly invoking a darker twist in this alleged romance. Carolyn, it turns out, has been murdered and, given their history, Rusty is the prime suspect.

What the trailer leaves out is extra juicy: Rusty and Carolyn were coworkers and prosecutors, and the suspected crime sends waves through the Chicago Prosecuting Attorney’s office as they mourn a colleague, reel from an affair, and pursue a murder investigation — to say nothing of how it affects Rusty’s marriage and home life.

The rest of the cast includes Ruth Negga,...

After nearly 6 seasons, tonight’s episode of FX’s Snowfall really hammers in the reality that the series is almost over.

Things really started feeling real after Uncle Jerome (Amin Joseph) was killed, no doubt, but since the beginning, this story revolved around Franklin Saint (Damson Idris) and Teddy McDonald (Carter Hudson) who finally come face to face in episode 9 aptly titled “Sacrifice.” This was a complicated relationship that fluctuated between business partners, and friends, to mortal enemies caught up in a cat-versus-mouse game where no one is a winner.

As for the Saint family and the rest of the surviving characters who made it this far alive, there is no happy ending no matter how you slice it. Everyone was gobbled up by Los Angeles’ seedy underbelly at the height of the crack epidemic,...

The promotional train for Dahmer may have started late, but the lack of publicity for the series has seemingly resulted in more interest.

Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story beat Netflix records in its first week on the streaming service.

After just five days available, it secured 196.2 million hours of viewership, allowing it to hit the #1 spot in several countries.

The numbers make Dahmer the highest first week of viewership for a series debut on Netflix.

Granted, the numbers were probably helped by the fact that the series dropped on a Wednesday instead of a Friday.

We'll have more concrete numbers when the show has been available for longer.

The series narrowly beat Inventing Anna, which netted 195.97 million hours viewed.

"Between 1978 and 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer gruesomely took the lives of seventeen innocent victims.

All 22,000 plus voting members of the TV academy have until July 13 to cast their 2020 Emmy Awards nominations ballots for programs (save for animated documentary/nonfiction which are restricted to their peer groups). Unlike the Oscars, voters for the Emmys do not rank their choices and nominees are determined by a simple tally. In the past, voters were limited in the number of programs that they could put forth.

Castle Rock Season 2 Episode 8

Things have reached a breaking point in the towns of Castle Rock and Jerusalem's Lot, and Annie and Nadia's earthly problems suddenly seem minuscule in the face of this Satanic takeover. While "Dirty" is an entertaining episode, it lacks a bit of the substance of the first seven episodes, settling into familiar horror tropes instead. This is perhaps the horror-focused episode you've been waiting for, but its hard for it to stand next to the brilliant chapters that have come before. 

If you love blood and guts, "Dirty" is certainly the episode for you. From throats being cut to people's heads being bashed open with a sledgehammer, the episode lets Annie lose herself in some bloody murder, as she tries...

Hulu has already released the first few episodes of J.J. Abrams and Stephen King’s Castle Rock and so far I’m loving it! If you haven’t started watching it yet, what are you waiting for!? We’ve got a new featurette to share with you today for the series which offers a behind-the-scenes look at the new season, and talks about creating an authentic Stephen King experience.

The second season of Castle Rock focuses on Annie Wilkes from King’s classic horrifying story, Misery. The synopsis explains that “a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when budding psychopath Annie Wilkes (Lizzy Caplan), Stephen King's nurse from hell, gets waylaid in Castle Rock."

Lizzy Caplan is perfect in the role of Annie and I couldn’t be happier with how the story is playing out. There are some great plot points that I didn’t see coming.

Check out the first teaser for the new season of Hulu Original Castle Rock. Season two stars Lizzy Caplan, Tim Robbins, Paul Sparks, Yusra Warsama, Barkhad Abdi, Elsie Fisher and Matthew Alan. Castle Rock premieres Wednesday, Oct. 23, only on Hulu. Synopsis: A psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse, Castle Rock combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King’s best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. The fictional Maine town of Castle Rock has figured prominently in King’s literary career: Cujo, The Dark Half, It and Needful Things, as well as novella The Body and numerous short stories (Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption) are set in there. Castle Rock is an original suspense/thriller — a first-of-its-kind reimagining that unites King’s themes and worlds, and brings together the author’s most iconic and beloved characters.

In today’s TV news roundup, Apple TV Plus’ upcoming drama “Dickinson” nabs rapper Wiz Khalifa, and Showtime pushes the 10th season premiere of “Shameless.”

Casting

Wiz Khalifa has booked a guest starring role on Apple TV Plus‘ upcoming period drama “Dickinson.“ The rapper-singer-songwriter-actor will play “Death,” an imaginary character who “personifies a crucial theme found throughout Emily Dickinson’s real works of poetry.” Here, he is depicted as Emily’s (Hailee Steinfeld) muse. Khalifa will appear in multiple episodes of the season, which launches Nov. 1 on the new streaming service.

Dates

Freeform has announced that its “Party of Five” reboot will debut Jan. 8. The Sony-produced series will follow the Acosta children as they navigate the daily struggles of life after their parents are deported to Mexico. Starring Brandon Larracuente, Emily Tosta, Niko Guardado and Elle Paris Legaspi, the timely show is a new iteration by original series creators Amy Lippman and Christopher Keyser.

Castle Rock is switching things up for its second season. 

Instead of serving as a sequel to Castle Rock Season 1, we will be getting a different tale set in the same town. 

But this tale is based on Stephen King's Misery novel, which was turned into a popular movie led by Kathy Bates. 

It serves as an origins story for Annie Wilkes, and Lizzy Caplan is taking on the lead role as the "budding psychopath."

Here's the official logline:

I loved the first season of Hulu’s Castle Rock, which is a series that dives into the deep dark world of the Stephen King universe. The full trailer has been released for Season 2, and it’s got me super excited for the madness that is coming!

In Season 2, “a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when budding psychopath Annie Wilkes (Lizzy Caplan), Stephen King's nurse from hell, gets waylaid in Castle Rock." The fact that her character is involved in this next season is awesome and it looks like Caplan is going to be great in the role. She’s got the crazy and insane look in her eyes that the character needs.

Misery arrives October 23rd on Hulu. Check out the trailer and let us know what you think! Are you looking forward to the second season of Castle Rock?

Here are some details on the...

In the world of Stephen King novels, hospitals aren’t exactly the happiest of places. That’s especially true when Annie Wilkes is involved.

As part of Season 2 of “Castle Rock,” the Hulu anthology series based on the prolific author’s ever-growing body of work, Lizzy Caplan will assume the on-screen role made famous by Kathy Bates in the 1990 film “Misery.” Rocking the same shoulder-length bob and walking around in orthopedic shoes that are sinister by association, these new episodes find her in her pre-“Misery” days, after an accident leaves her stranded in the Maine town that gives the series its name.

Just like last season, “Castle Rock” is well steeped in all things King, beyond a novel or two here or there. With character names, places, and outright invocations of other King titles, Hulu’s show isn’t afraid to draw connections between the author’s other works.

Lizzy Caplan’s arrival as Annie Wilkes appears to be bad news for the residents of Castle Rock. Hulu released the first teaser for the second season of the Stephen King-inspired series, featuring Caplan as King’s famous nurse from hell.

Watch the trailer in the video above.

The second season stars Caplan as a younger version of Annie Wilkes, who was played by Kathy Bates in the 1990 film “Misery,” which featured Bates as a former nurse and crazed fan of James Caan’s novelist, Paul Sheldon. In Season 2, a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when Wilkes gets waylaid in Castle Rock.
