Ruth Negga, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Renate Reinsve for Presumed Innocent

The Big Picture There is a speech given by Bill Camp's Raymond Horgan that perfectly sums up what the new Apple TV+ adaptation of the 1987 legal thriller novel Presumed Innocent is all about: “It’s what men who cheat do… They wanna have their cake, eat it, and then chalk up to complexity.

Cast Jake Gyllenhaal , Tate Birchmore , Kingston Rumi Southwick , Roberta Bassin Seasons 1 What Is 'Presumed Innocent' About? Based on Scott Turow’s novel and following Sydney Pollack’s movie adaptation starring Harrison Ford at the height of his power, the series has the same plot at its core. Rusty Sabich is a chief deputy prosecutor in Chicago, working under the District Attorney and his close friend, Raymond Horgan .

Apple TV+'s Presumed Innocenttakes the basics of the book and movie, updates them, and expands on all the themes and ideas that couldn’t make it into a film’s runtime. On the surface, this is a show about a grisly murder, a sexy affair, and some legal proceedings to boot. Look further, and you will see one of the most refreshing takedowns of male ego on recent television. The shadow of Succession is strong in today’s small-screen climate, but trust showrunner David E.

Ruth Negga’s Barbara is much more fleshed out than in the movie, with the series devoting ample time to showing the effects of the affair and murder on her. She may not be the one facing prison, but she is the collateral damage caught in the tornado of her husband’s shitstorm.

Like the flashbacks to the police interrogations in Big Little Lies,Carolyn's murder is the chilling and simmering undertone of the film that drives the stakes and tension of the narrative. We may not get to know the character on a more intimate level, but her presence is felt throughout as both a loving memory and a painful ghost for Rusty.
