Bosch: Legacy - Looks Like The Jerry Edgar Spin-Off Might Happen

Key Takeaways

  • Bosch: Legacy season 3 on Prime Video in March 2025 will be the last to feature Harry Bosch’s solo stories.
  • The Jerry Edgar spin-off might not be entirely dead depending on the success of Ballard.
  • Fans can support Jerry Edgar’s return by signing the Save: Bosch Legacy petition, with the potential for interlinking stories in the Bosch universe.

As a die-hard fan of the Bosch franchise, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension as we approach March 2025 when Bosch: Legacy season 3 hits Prime Video. While it’s heartening to know that Harry Bosch’s solo stories will have a fitting conclusion, the thought of saying goodbye forever is bittersweet.

As a devoted fan, I’m eagerly counting down to March 2025 when Bosch: Legacy season 3 premieres on Prime Video. Unfortunately, this will mark the end of Harry Bosch’s solo adventures as Amazon decided to call it quits in September 2024. They also scrapped plans for a Jerry Edgar spin-off, where Bosch’s longtime partner was set to go undercover with the FBI in Haiti. However, there might be a glimmer of hope! Michael Connelly, the author and executive producer, has hinted that the J Edgar spin-off isn’t entirely dead yet, but it largely depends on various factors.

The Renee Ballard spin-off series is scheduled for release in Fall 2025, following her storyline at the end of Bosch: Legacy season 3. It appears that any possible comeback of Jerry Edgar could hinge on the success of Ballard’s series. However, the sudden cancellation of the planned spin-offs for both characters has left fans puzzled and wondering about Amazon’s decision and its implications.

Michael Connelly Has Revealed That Jerry Edgar’s Spin-Off Might Still Happen But It All Rests On The Success Of Ballard

Beyond simply showing apparent backing for the “Bosch Legacy” petition, Michael Connelly has additionally shared encouraging updates for fans disheartened by the cancellation of the Jerry Edgar spin-off. During a conversation with The Irish Star, he stated:

Amazon will watch how Ballard performs first, and if all goes well, we hope to reintroduce Jerry later on.

As a dedicated fan, hearing this news about the Bosch TV universe is like hitting a jackpot! Jerry Edgar, a character I’ve grown to love, deserves a deeper dive into his solo story, and it looks like Connelly might be on board. Initially, Amazon’s statement from October suggested that Jerry’s journey wasn’t in their immediate plans. But maybe things have shifted, with the progress of Ballard, currently in production, possibly influencing this decision.

Initially, I’ve been cautious about predicting the success of other projects, but considering my current expertise, I am absolutely convinced that this one is going to be a big hit.

If Michael Connelly vouches for Renee Ballard’s success, it should be more than enough assurance for readers. With nine acclaimed series under his belt, featuring the iconic character Harry Bosch, and a tenth on its way in March 2025, there’s no question about his credibility. And let’s not forget, when Connelly was involved in casting Harry Bosch, fans were treated to Titus Welliver. In my book, that seals the deal!

Even If Ballard Is A Success, Amazon Might Not Give The Go Ahead For The Jerry Edgar Spin-Off

Although Michael Connelly’s comments about the potential continuation of the Jerry Edgar spin-off sound hopeful, it’s crucial to recall that the ultimate decision lies with Amazon’s executives. Given recent events, even if Ballard turns out to be a massive hit, there’s no guarantee they would revive Jerry Edgar again. The cancellation of Bosch, despite its popularity, serves as a reminder that we can’t blindly trust Amazon’s promises about the return of Jerry Edgar in any substantial form. But if Amazon is open to revisiting the Jerry Edgar series, then why not consider reconsidering the cancellation of Bosch Legacy, too?

Supporting the petition to revive “Bosch: Legacy” essentially means advocating for the return of Jerry Edgar, as well as preserving the continuity of Renee Ballard’s solo show. The Bosch-verse could become a collection of shows, so by signing the petition for “Bosch: Legacy”, you’re also endorsing Connelly’s entire universe.

I think there’s an understanding in Hollywood that this stuff works and that works to my advantage.

It seems that Connelly’s point is valid – constructing a cinematic universe like the one found in Hollywood indeed works. So, it leaves one wondering, why is Amazon halting their own version of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)?
