Netflix's Lincoln Lawyer season 3 gets first look with Neve Campbell return
Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer has teased season three, with new photos.

Fans can look forward to the return of Neve Campbell, reprising her role as Maggie McPherson, last seen during season two leaving to take a job in San Diego.

Showrunner Ted Humphrey told TV Insider in August that the extent to which Maggie will feature depends on Campbell’s schedule.
A newly released photo for Deadline shows Campbell reunited with Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, who plays the show’s lead, Mickey Haller; another shows Garcia-Rulfo on set.
Also returning to the show are Elliott Gould, Krista Warner and Fiona Rene, as well as Devon Graye – who will now have a recurring role, after appearing briefly in season two.
Regular cast members Garcia-Rulfo, Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole, Angus Sampson and Yaya DaCosta will also be back for season three.
There will be 10 episodes, and it will be based on the fifth book in Michael Connelly’s The Lincoln Lawyer series.

In a statement, Humphrey and fellow showrunner Dailyn Rodriguez have explained an exciting new twist that will kick off the new season.
They said: "While season 3 of The Lincoln Lawyer is based on Michael Connelly’s novel The Gods of Guilt, we decided that a fun (and poignant) way to come into the season would be via a flashback sequence that gave us some insight into how Mickey Haller became Mickey Haller – not just the brilliant criminal defence lawyer but the husband, the father, and the man that he would come to be.
"There is no comparable flashback in the book, so we devised something that would also serve as a fitting introduction to the story of the season, both on a plot level but also emotionally."
The first two seasons of The Lincoln Lawyer are available now on Netflix.
