In addition to writing, Kelley executive produces through David E. Kelley Productions alongside Matthew Tinker. Thomason also serves as executive producer. Scott Turow and Bad Robot’s Rachel Rusch Rich will serve as co-executive producers.

‘Presumed Innocent’ will be released exclusively on Apple TV+ at an unannounced date.
