Billy Bob Thornton in "Goliath"

Amazon has renewed Goliath for a fifth and final season. 

Created by David E. Kelley and Jonathan Shapiro, Goliath stars Billy Bob Thornton as washed-up lawyer Billy McBride who seeks revenge after a client he defended from a murder charge goes on to commit another deadly crime. 

The renewal was announced Thursday evening just over a month after season 3 made its debut. 

“I’m thrilled we get another season to tell Billy McBride’s story. Our latest case tackles a timely global crisis that impacts an entire generation, and we will be adding some exceptional talent to our already amazing cast,” said series executing producer Lawrence Trilling in a statement. “I’m so grateful to everyone at Amazon for their support of the show. Jennifer, Steve and Geyer have been dream partners, Billy Bob is a constant inspiration, and I’ve been blessed to work with a stellar cast and crew.”

Goliath also stars Nina Arianda as Patty Solis-Papagian, Tania Raymonde as Brittany Gold, Diana Hopper as Denise McBride, Ana de la Reguera as Marisol Silva, and Julie Brister as Marva Jefferson.
