Synopsis

Defending Jacob (2020) is a crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. When a teenager is found stabbed in a quiet Massachusetts suburb, suspicion lands on the 14-year-old son of the town's own prosecutor.

Andy Barber (Chris Evans) builds murder cases for a living, until the accused turns out to be his own boy. Andy and his wife Laurie (Michelle Dockery) are sure Jacob (Jaeden Martell) could never do it. The further they dig, the less they recognize the kid sleeping down the hall. Rival prosecutor Neal Logiudice (Pablo Schreiber) hammers the evidence, while Andy's father (J.K. Simmons) guards a family secret best left buried. Across eight episodes one question never lets go: how well do parents really know their children?

This Apple TV+ limited series adapts William Landay's bestselling novel, with Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game) directing every chapter. The finale deliberately withholds the tidy answer you want, and people have been arguing about it ever since. Stream all episodes of Defending Jacob online on iFILM.
