It was back in December 2022 when reports first surfaced that Jake Gyllenhaal (Donnie Darko, Road House) was in talks to both star in & executive produce Apple TV+'s limited series inspired by bestselling author Scott Turow's courtroom thriller Presumed Innocent. Now, streaming viewers are getting their first look at the eight-episode limited series stemming from Gyllenhaal, David E. Kelley & J.J. Abrams – set to hit screens with a two-episode premiere on Friday, June 14th. In the Apple TV+ 2024 trailer that was released earlier today to kick off the Television Critics Association (TCA) Winter Press Event, we get a look at the series (beginning around the 0:54 mark) – and we also have two official images waiting for you below, too:
Originally published in 1987 and adapted in 1990 as a Harrison Ford-starring feature film, the upcoming series take finds Gyllenhaal taking on the lead role of chief deputy prosecutor Rusty Sabich. Over the course of eight episodes, Presumed Innocent will take viewers on a gripping journey through a horrific murder that upends the Chicago Prosecuting Attorney's office when one of its own is suspected of the crime.
