Jake Gyllenhaal won't return for season 2 of Apple TV crime drama Presumed Innocent, which will follow a new case and characters

Presumed Innocent.

Apple TV Plus' hit legal drama Presumed Innocent will take on brand new source material for season 2 as the show moves on with a cast of new characters, Deadline reports.

The first season, starring Jake Gyllenhaal as prosecutor and murder suspect Rusty Sabich, was based on the novel of the same name by Scott Turow. Season 2, however, will be based on Dissection of a Murder, a currently unpublished novel by Jo Murray that's set to hit shelves in 2026. The book follows Leila Reynolds, a defense lawyer feeling way out of her depth on her murder case – made more complicated by the fact that her husband happens to be the prosecutor. No casting information has been revealed yet.
