Harry Bosch, Mickey Haller, Renée Ballard, Jack McEvoy... This is the official Twitter account for author Michael Connelly, run by his social media manager.
I’m thinking about my friend Lance Reddick. More than being a key ingredient in the Bosch show, he was a wonderful person, friend and collaborator. He took a character who was paper-thin in the books and made Irvin Irving
Ten years ago today Amazon debuted the pilot episode of Bosch. Streaming was something new and coming fast, but it was still uncharted territory and we needed people to watch and rate the show so Amazon would be convinced to go forward with it. Bosch fans did that by the tens 🧵

It is great news that Bosch will live on in a new streaming show. I want to thank everybody who signed petitions, posted comments, and watched the show. The numbers counted, the voices were heard. Stay tuned! - MC

We just finished filming another season of Bosch: Legacy and I think that after nine seasons of telling the Bosch story, we have hit a high watermark. We adapted THE CROSSING (2015) but added new stuff and of course paid off last season’s cliffhanger. I’m not sure yet when in
Hard to believe but we started production today on the 10th season of the Harry Bosch story. Season 3 of Bosch: Legacy is underway. Based on Desert Star (2022) and a lot of new stuff for Maddie Bosch and Money Chandler, …🧵
Happy to share that The Lincoln Lawyer will return for season 2 on Netflix. Season 2 will use The Fifth Witness (2011) as the main source material and will be 10 episodes long. No release date has been announced yet.

This year, we're celebrating 30 Years Of Harry Bosch.
THE BLACK ECHO, Michael's first novel and the introduction of Harry Bosch, was published 30 years ago in January 1992, and we plan on celebrating this significant anniversary all year long.
Season 6 of
@BoschAmazon
is rolling! We start with The Overlook and move into Dark Sacred Night. Hard to believe we’ll have 60 episodes. But so many people, including the two with me on the set here, have put their heart & soul into the show it really isn’t that surprising.- MC
We just had a sad goodbye to

We are seven episodes into the next Bosch show and things are going well. Sometimes things do seem a little strange. Harry Bosch has no badge; Maddie Bosch does. But it’s all working. 1/2
The word is out. The second season of The Lincoln Lawyer starts on Netflix on July 6. I’m very excited about this season. It’s based on The Fifth Witness (2011) and like season one, I marvel at how the writers of the show took a book very much set in its time and
Well, it’s unusual when a writer is at a loss for words, but that’s how I feel today. We finished filming the final season of Bosch. I am both sad and fulfilled. We made a really good show, one I am proud of, one I think will be discovered by new viewers for years to come. 1/
TV series update. Both season 3 of The Lincoln Lawyer (Netflix) and Bosch: Legacy (Prime Video) have reached the halfway point of filming. There is no release date information yet for either show.
Every L.A. private detective’s office has to have Venetian blinds, right? It’s in the rule book of noir, I think. Here we are filming the last episode of the first season of the new Bosch show. It’s been a great ride. -MC

We were very lucky to have had Annie on our show. She was a gifted actress, great friend, great mother, and an unabashed Cardinals fan in a Dodger town. - MC
From the set of The Lincoln Lawyer season 2: I’m excited to report we have started filming season 2. It’s so nice to be back on the set again. This year we are adapting The Fifth Witness and have some amazing new additions to cast, crew and writing team. It’s gonna be great! - MC
And now Maddie...
We “wrapped out”
@madison_lintz
who has played Maddie since she was 14. A lot of pressure playing someone inspired by my own daughter, but Madison has been wonderful all the way.

It’s a scary time with so many things to worry about. Here’s hoping a new book is a great escape, a perfect distraction, an entertainment, and good news. This particular new book comes out 1 week from today. It features Jack McEvoy and Rachel Walling.

“The fourth Renée Ballard and Harry Bosch novel is the best yet, both because Ballard has evolved into one of crime fiction’s richest, most complex characters and because Connelly takes an unflinching look at policing in the post–George Floyd era.”

Back to work on
@BoschAmazon
. The writing room for the 6th season opened today - notice the empty walls. We’ll soon fill those up with story beats and start putting together a season that is a worthy follow to the upcoming season 5 (4/19). Never thought I would see this happen.
2023 the show will premiere on Amazon Freevee/Prime, but I don’t think anyone will be disappointed. Titus, Madison and Mimi turned in great performances as did all the cast; the usual suspects as well as some new faces. We will let you know as soon as we know when you’ll get to
