The last episode of La Défense Lincoln available on Netflix clearly calls for a season 3… Can it see the light of day?
The Lincoln Defense is one of Netflix’s hits. The court series adapted from the novels by Michael Connelly is currently first in the top most-watched titles, after the second half of season 2 went online.
Those who have already binge-watched these 5 new episodes have discovered the end cliffhanger which clearly calls for a season 3. Currently, Netflix has not yet renewed the series.
The platform generally waits a month after the release of a season before deciding, in order to be able to analyze the viewing figures. But in the case of La Défense Lincoln, there is nothing to worry about.
The only downside concerns the writers’ and actors’ strike that is raging in Hollywood. While negotiations are progressing slowly between the main unions and the production companies, it is difficult for the latter to announce the renewal of a series without having first exchanged with the actors and screenwriters who do not have the right to work. Currently.
If there is season 3 of La Défense Lincoln, it will therefore be necessary to wait for the end of the strike so that the writers begin to work on the new episodes. Fortunately, these do not really start from a blank page since the series is taken from a literary saga which includes 6 volumes.
They will adapt this time the 5th opus, The Gods of Verdictin which Mickey Haller investigates the murder of a former prostitute who was his client (Glory Days).
It is also in this novel that his half-brother, Harry Bosch, another literary hero of Connelly, appears. A character who was entitled to his own series, offered this time by a competing platform, Prime Video.
If there is little chance that we see Titus Welliver appear in The Lincoln Defense, Netflix could call on another actor to play him.
Answer probably in 2024.
