This casting is not just a celebrity cameo. Harvey, who runs Lori Harvey Enterprises, has been expanding her career beyond business and modeling. Her role in Reasonable Doubt is seen as a strategic move into serious acting.
What to Expect in Reasonable Doubt Season 3
The new season picks up after Jax Stewart’s intense battle to save her best friend from a life sentence. Just as she finds some stability, a new case pulls her back into chaos. She takes on the defense of a former child star caught in serious legal trouble, but the case quickly spirals into something far more dangerous.
Adding to the drama, a charismatic new associate at Jax’s law firm threatens her career. With Chelsea’s arrival, Jax must navigate professional threats, personal conflicts, and a high-stakes legal battle.
The Star-Studded Cast and Production Team
Harvey joins returning stars like McKinley Freeman (Lewis Stewart), Tim Jo (Daniel), and Angela Grovey (Krystal). Guest stars include Morris Chestnut, Rumer Willis, Brandee Evans, and Kash Doll, making this season the most star-packed yet.
The show is created and executive-produced by Raamla Mohamed, with Kerry Washington also serving as an executive producer. The team behind Scandal and other hit dramas ensures Reasonable Doubt stays sharp, suspenseful, and full of twists.
Why Lori Harvey’s Casting Matters
Harvey’s entry into scripted TV reflects a growing trend of influencers crossing over into traditional acting. With her strong business background and social media influence (over 9 million Instagram followers), she brings built-in audience appeal.
Her previous modeling work with brands like Chanel and Ferragamo has given her industry credibility. Now, her acting in Reasonable Doubt could solidify her place in Hollywood beyond her entrepreneurial success.
