## Summary

Netflix has confirmed that The Lincoln Lawyer’s fifth season will not arrive until 2027, despite filming having wrapped in July. The delay means viewers will wait longer for the next chapter, which will also be the legal thriller’s final season.

Season 5 was renewed before Season 4 premiered, but Netflix later confirmed it would end the series. The final season will adapt Michael Connelly’s 2023 novel Resurrection Walk and continue from the revelation that Mickey Haller has a half-sister, Emi Finch. Cobie Smulders is due to reprise her role as Emi, and Netflix is developing a spin-off centred on her character.
