Apple TV+ is becoming one of the best current streaming platforms, and now it is about to release one of its most ambitious projects. Presumed Innocent, a 1990 film starring Harrison Ford and based on Scott Turow’s successful bestseller, returns as a miniseries on Apple TV+.
The plot, although not new, remains captivating: Rusty Sabich, a prestigious prosecutor, sees his life crumble when a murder incriminates him. This thriller, originally starring Harrison Ford in the 90s, now features Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role.

The cast includes stars like Ruth Negga, Bill Camp, O-T Fagbenle, Elizabeth Marvel, Nana Mensah, Lily Rabe, Renate Reinsve, Peter Sarsgaard, and Tate Birchmore. The series will premiere on Apple TV+ on June 12, coinciding with Apple’s WWDC24 event. A new episode will be released every week until its finale on July 24, under the direction of Anne Sewitsky and Greg Yaitanes.
