TVLine Items: Lincoln Lawyer Trailer, Big Brother Anniversary Special And More
The Lincoln Lawyer is kicking off the second half of Season 2 with a trip to the hospital, before returning to the courtroom in a new trailer for the Netflix drama's return.
In the above video, Mickey is quick to get back to work — "I don't have time for rest. I've got a trial coming up," he says — while Maggie worries over her ex.
"They could have killed you, Mickey," she notes, adding, "There's got to be another way to do your job — safer, more conventional."
As the trial begins, with Mickey facing off against Yaya DaCosta's formidable prosecutor, danger continues to plague the defense lawyer in the form of a speeding car... and temptation from his own client?
Part 1 is currently streaming, while Part 2 debuts Thursday, Aug. 3.
