Apple TV+ announced today that Presumed Innocent has been renewed for Season 2. Originally billed as a limited series, the pickup comes after the show became the streaming service's #1 most-viewed drama of all time.

Season 1 is based on the New York Times bestselling novel of the same name by Scott Turow. Set in Chicago, it follows a horrific murder that upends the city's Prosecuting Attorney's Office when the chief deputy prosecutor, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, is suspected of the crime. This leaves the accused fighting to hold his family and marriage together. Season 2 will follow a completely new case.

Two episodes remain in the show's freshman run, with the finale scheduled to release on July 24.
