Tommy Molto is no longer available to kick: Peter Sarsgaard has announced that he will not be returning as the uptight prosecutor in the second season of Presumed Innocent on Apple TV+.
Presumed Innocent: Peter Sarsgaard Not Returning for Season 2
Sarsgaard's much-criticized Molto took aim at Jake Gyllenhaal's Rusty Sabich in David E. Kelley's film adaptation of Scott Turow's novel.
"I'm not really interested in sequels," Sarsgaard told IndieWire. "I think I've only done one season of anything. I think I'm a one-season person… I tell my kids this sometimes, I've done maybe 90, 100 different things over the years between movies and TV shows and plays. I say, 'I'm really good at saying hello and goodbye.' There's something really valuable about saying goodbye, because then you have to go find another source of inspiration and then you change."
Earlier this month, Apple announced it has ordered a second season of the legal thriller, with Kelley, JJ Abrams and Gyllenhaal serving as executive producers and Turow as co-executive producer.
