Apple TV Plus Updates Season 2 of Most Watched Drama Series - What We Know So Far

Apple TV Plus continues to be one of the best streaming services, consistently delivering quality movies and shows. Its diverse content has been widely praised, including “Presumed Innocent,” which has been highly regarded as the platform's #1 show since its initial broadcast in June. Currently, the first season has not yet finished, but Apple TV Plus has decided to produce a Season 2.

“Presumed Innocent” is a legal thriller drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal as Rusty Savich, a prosecutor accused of the brutal murder of his colleague Carolyn Polhemus (Renate Reinswe). Her murder rocks the legal profession and Rusty's life as he struggles to prove his innocence.

Despite being originally planned as a limited series, “Presumed Innocent” was renewed for a second season due to its immense popularity. Currently, the show has a 76% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is considered an average score for critics. However, viewer ratings are slightly higher at 81%.

Whether Jake Gyllenhaal will return remains unconfirmed. Details on what to expect in Season 2 are sparse, but speculation is rife about the thrilling direction the legal drama may take next.

Given that we are still awaiting the final episode of Season 1, it is hard to say what Season 2 of “Presumed Innocent” will be like!

Based on the original 1990 film, it is quite possible that Rusty will have his case dismissed for lack of direct evidence. However, the Apple TV Plus has a chance to take the story in a different direction and could provide a totally unexpected and satisfying ending that wraps up the case nicely.

Apple TV Plus is keeping details of Season 2 under wraps, but teases a “suspenseful new case.” Gyllenhaal's involvement remains unclear, but the promise of new characters suggests another thrilling storyline. The show could become an anthology series, as each season will focus on different cases and characters.

Since its debut on June 12, Apple TV Plus claims that “Presumed Innocent” has become the most-watched drama in history, although specific ratings data has not been released. Nevertheless, the fact that it consistently holds the number one spot suggests that the show has deep-rooted popularity among viewers, and it is possible that the show will gain more seasons over time.

“Presumed Innocent” episode 7 premieres on July 17 and the finale will be available on July 24, and can be streamed now on Apple TV Plus.
