According to Deadline, CBS has decided not to go through with David E. Kelley’s planned TV adaptation of Michael Connelly’s bestseller, The Lincoln Lawyer.
The news comes as a shock, as the series had a massive series production commitment.
The series was in its final stages of pre-production when all work on CBS pilots was shut down on Friday, March 13 due to the coronavirus.
Casting was nearly complete as well with Logan Marshall-Green set to star in the series after a lengthy negotiation process.
