The Lincoln Lawyer is headed back to court. Netflix announced in a post on X that it had renewed the series for a fourth season. Based on the book series by Michael Connelly, the show has become a breakout hit for the streamer over its first three seasons.

The show will be adapting Connelly’s novel The Law of Innocence for the show’s fourth season, which will consist of 10 episodes. Production is set to start on the new season in February. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo will return as Mickey Haller for the new season alongside Neve Campbell, whose role is expanding after a limited presence in season 3. Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole, and and Angus Sampson are all returning as well.

David E. Kelley first created the series back in 2022 and has served as an executive producer on the show ever since. The show’s most recent season debuted in October of 2024, and it has consistently shown up in Netflix’s Top 10 with the release of each new season. It might not have the audience of some of Netflix’s biggest performers, but it also has lower production costs than those major hits. Lincoln Lawyer has a solid fanbase, and it doesn’t look like that support is going anywhere.

The show follows an idealistic lawyer who runs a law practice out of the back of his Lincoln, taking on cases both big and small across the city of Los Angeles. Before it was adapted to the small screen, the novels were adapted into a movie of the same name that starred Matthew McConaughey.

15 movies every man should watch as often as possible
Movies that will teach you to be a man and entertain you at the same time
Person, Sitting, Adult

Everyone loves a good movie night. Whether you like to get dressed and head to the theater so you can justify the biggest bucket of popcorn and soda you can find for something new, or you are the kind of guy who likes to lie out on the couch for an old faithful, we all love to sit down and allow escapism to take us somewhere more digestible than the real world. Some movies are meant to inspire; others are meant to frighten. There are good bang, bang, shoot 'em ups, roaring comedies, and everything in between. However, movies are also the best teaching tools if you know how to pull the right themes and ideas while watching. Now, this doesn't mean you can get all you need to know from movies, but they are a great jumping-off point for learning some style, solving problems, or navigating adversity. This isn't like every other movie ranking; this one has a specific purpose.

There are thousands of movies in every category below to choose from, and curating your own go-to list will help you elevate your life on your own terms, but here are 15 movies every man should watch soon and often.

Remembering Sam Neill and the two times he changed Hollywood
The legendary actor changed Hollywood first by NOT being in a movie, then again by being in a movie.
Face, Happy, Head

We lost a legend yesterday. On July 13th, I was standing on the plains of Africa on safari when I got a Google alert (yes, my service worked all the way out among the Big Five). One of my favorites from my childhood passed away. Dr. Alan Grant, the man who introduced me to dinosaurs when I was a child, had passed away suddenly. Today, it was reported that he died from pneumonia due to having a compromised immune system after years of fighting a type of blood cancer. I don't know why it hit me so hard. Maybe because it was a piece of my childhood stripped from me. Maybe we're all still trying to recapture the wonders of our world that he so expertly presented as thrilling entertainment. Whatever the reason, I have been thinking about it ever since. I even watched Jurassic Park on the flight back (thank you, Delta Airlines for having it available since every streaming service out there has pulled it now in favor of rent service). That is when I started thinking about his career. From Jurassic Park and Merlin to Peaky Blinders and Event Horizon, here are two times Sam Neill changed Hollywood. Once with his presence and once with his absence.

He was almost 007

What to expect at the Scottish Open — without looking too far ahead with The Open around the corner
The Scottish Open returns to The Renaissance Club, just outside of Edinburgh.
Field, Nature, Outdoors

The Genesis Scottish Open is here. It feels like a major tournament. Keyword, feels. The actual major tournament, The Open, golf's oldest tournament, is scheduled next week. But the field in Scotland is not treating the Scottish Open like a tune-up to The Open. If nothing else, the field at the Renaissance Club is excited about the mix of players scheduled to hit the links.

While, yes, PGA Tour players like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler are expected this weekend, fans should also expect to see, yes, LIV Tour players. That's because the Scottish Open is co-sanctioned by the PGA and European Tours. So, while the PGA Tour banned players who defected to play with LIV some four years ago, the European Tour has allowed them to play at its events.
