CBS is reimagining MATLOCK this fall, with a new series led by Kathy Bates…but as the new trailer implies, she’s a very different Matlock than viewers have seen before.

Watch the new spot now…

According to CBS, “MATLOCK stars Emmy and Academy Award winner Kathy Bates as Madeline “Matty” Matlock, a brilliant septuagenarian who achieved success in her younger years and decides to rejoin the work force at a prestigious law firm where she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases. Matty is assigned to Olympia (Skye P. Marshall), a senior attorney and key rainmaker with a thirst for justice, Olympia’s ex-husband, Julian (Jason Ritter), the son of the head of the firm, is intrigued by Matty and her clever skills. As Matty endeavors to establish herself in her new high-stakes world, she works alongside the firm’s younger associates – the charismatic Billy (David Del Rio) and the uber ambitious Sarah (Leah Lewis). MATLOCK is inspired by the classic television series of the same name.” Jennie Snyder Urman showruns the series.

MATLOCK has a special preview of the premiere on Sunday, September 22 at 8/7c. The first episode will repeat on Thursday, October 10 (at 9/8c), with episode 2 airing on Thursday, October 17 at 9/8c.
