Eight years ago, in March of 2011, director Brad Furman released a Matthew McConaughey vehicle called The Lincoln Lawyer (the use of “vehicle” there is a pun). Based on the Michael Connelly novel of the same name, the movie starred McConaughey as a slick lawyer who gradually learns that there are more important things in life than money. Five months later, ABC ordered a pilot script for a TV show based on The Lincoln Lawyer, with some less-famous actor playing an attorney who decides to try using his legal knowledge for good while operating out of the trunk of his Lincoln Town Car. That project stalled, and then nobody talked about The Lincoln Lawyer for years and years and years… until now!
