Billy Bob Thornton is back on the case in Amazon Prime Video’s original series Goliath, which is heading into its fourth and final season this fall. It’s been almost two years since the legal drama’s season three cliffhanger, but the wait is almost over to see how Billy McBride’s story concludes.
Goliath was created by David E. Kelly, who is best known for writing other popular TV series including Big Little Lies, Big Sky and the currently streaming Nine Perfect Strangers.
What’s in store for Thornton’s McBride and the rest of Goliath’s cast of characters? Here’s everything that we know about the final season of Goliath.
What is the plot of ‘Goliath’?
Goliath centers on disgraced lawyer Billy McBride. After getting thrown out of his big-name law firm, he looks to rebuild his career as he seeks redemption, or at least revenge against his previous bosses.
The third season of Goliath ended on a bit of a cliffhanger as McBride was shot and left to die. However, he obviously pulled through, but the experience appears to have given him a new purpose — one last fight. In this final season that will see him take on a major pharmaceutical company.
Here’s the official synopsis for Goliath season four:
In the final season, Billy returns to his Big Law roots after Patty takes a job at a prestigious white-shoe law firm in San Francisco. Together, they try to take down one of America’s most insidious Goliaths: the opioid industry. As Billy deals with his own chronic pain and Patty can’t shake the feeling she’s being used, their loyalties will be tested, putting their partnership on the line. In a world where money can buy anything, even justice, they’ll have to risk everything to do what’s right.
