Kelley will serve as showrunner and executive-produce alongside Dustin Thomason (Castle Rock), J.J. Abrams and Bad Robot’s Ben Stephenson.

Inspired by Turow’s 1987 courtroom thriller, Apple TV+’s Presumed Innocent will tell the story of a horrific murder that upends the Chicago Prosecuting Attorney’s office when one of its own is suspected of the crime. Kelley’s modern-day reimagining promises to explore “obsession, sex, politics, and the power and limits of love, as the accused fights to hold his family and marriage together.”

Harrison Ford starred in a 1990 film adaptation, opposite Bonnie Bedelia and Greta Scacchi.
