The first season of Hulu's Reasonable Doubt is a warm and twisty introduction to the world of Jax Stewart: her perfect life on paper, her high-profile clients, and her complicated love for criminals. The legal drama received a 100% Tomatometer score, providing ample fodder for future episodes and the first scripted series from Onyx Collective - said Tara Duncan, president of the show recently told Variety the brand will be "announced on more projects soon." Kerry Washington, who directed the first episode, is also expected to collaborate more with the collective, Variety reports.
So fans naturally have reason to have more hope after the show's season finale on November 15. And, it turns out, there will indeed be a second season of Reasonable Doubt ! Hulu announced the renewal on April 17, adding a new character to Jax's life (more on that later).
Here’s everything you need to know about Reasonable Doubt Season 2 so far.
"Reasonable Doubt" Season 2 Cast List
The movie wouldn't be "Reasonable Doubt" without Emayatzy Corinealdi, who plays criminal defense attorney Jax Stewart. She previously expressed her hopes for a second season in an interview with Today. "There's more runway for Jax and her world," she said. "I think people are interested in seeing what happens after the finale." McKinley Freeman, Tim Cho, Angela Grove, Adelinsola Olabode and Thaddeus J. Mixon will return along with Corinaldi.
According to Deadline , Morris Chestnut will play Corey Cash, "a charming, media-savvy defense attorney who often represents the underdog." "When Jax asks Corey to help with a new high-profile case, she quickly realizes he's more glamor than substance and threatens her position at the firm."
Reasonable Doubt Season 2 Plot
Based on Li Zi’s character description, it appears that Reasonable Doubt Season 2 will focus on a new criminal case. Of course, there is no shortage of real-world events to draw from. The show was partly inspired by attorney Shawn Holley, who was part of OJ Simpson's defense (aka the "dream team") during his murder trial in the '90s.
Reasonable Doubt Season 2 Potential Premiere Date
Of course, a potential release date for Reasonable Doubt Season 2 is just a guessing game right now — however, we can take a look back at Season 1 to get an idea of a possible production timeline. The first episode of the show received a series order in September 2021 and will premiere a year later in September 2022. If Season 2 follows a similar schedule, we could get new episodes as early as spring or summer 2024.
