Regarding the original series’ cancellation, one of the showrunners told Collider, “We could have kept this show going for another season or two, and we had ideas to do that. But, we are very grateful to Netflix for giving us the opportunity to wrap the show up correctly.”
With The Lincoln Lawyer season five in production, fans can expect to get to know Emi better before she stars on her own. Smulders was promoted to a series regular for this season, and the plot is driven by her character, who comes to her half-brother to ask for his help freeing a wrongfully-convicted woman.
