The ‘Lincoln Lawyer’ Cast: Who Plays Who in the Netflix Hit’s Upcoming Season 4

The legal drama led by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo is one of the streamer’s most popular shows.

Netflix’s hit legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer returned for its third season in October 2024, bringing another installment full of twists and turns. Co-created by David E. Kelley and based on the thriller book series by Michael Connelly (which was previously adapted into a 2011 film starring Matthew McConaughey), the series centers on criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller Jr., who prefers to conduct his business out of his beloved Lincoln cars. After recovering from substance use disorder, Mickey re-enters the legal profession, determined to fight for his clients, with the help of his two ex-wives and his loyal legal team.

Each season of The Lincoln Lawyer follows Mickey’s team as they juggle several cases, with new supporting characters arriving each season. As they watch, many TV fans will recognize familiar faces among the series’s cast, from scream queens to sitcom stars to film legends. And the recent season 3 won’t be the last we see of Mickey and his associates: The Netflix original has already been renewed for season 4, with much of the cast set to return, save for one star. Read on to learn more about the cast of The Lincoln Lawyer.
