"Reasonable Doubt" centers on Los Angeles-based high-powered criminal defense attorney Jacqueline "Jax" Stewart (Corinealdi) as she deals with past traumas, a failing marriage, motherhood and a murder case, all while trying to keep her life together.

Chestnut is set to play Corey Cash, a charming, media-savvy defense attorney who often represents the underdogs. When Jax brings in Corey to help on a new high-profile case, she soon realizes that he's more shine than substance and that he's threatening her position at the firm.

Additional television credits include "Our Kind of People," "The Resident," "The Enemy Within," "Legends," "American Horror Story," "Goliath," "Nurse Jackie" and "Rosewood," where he received his fourth NAACP Image Award nomination in the category of Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series.
