Ryan Phillippe filming denim the lincoln lawyer downtown running

Ryan Phillippe was snapped on the set of The Lincoln Lawyer in downtown Los Angeles yesterday, and not only are we excited to see him back on the silver screen (the last big film he did was Stop-Loss in 2008), but this movie definitely has the right cast and plot to be a huge hit!

Based on the book by Michael Connelly, the Lincoln Lawyer is about a criminal defense attorney named Mickey Haller (played by Matthew McConaughey) who operates out of the back seat of his Lincoln town car, representing all sorts of clients. After taking on a Beverly Hills playboy (Phillippe) who is arrested for attacking a woman at a bar, Haller's life takes an unexpected and dangerous turn. Marisa Tomei and William H. Macy also star.
