Mike Colter Stars as Silicon Valley Lawyer in CBS Legal Thriller Cupertino

Two attorneys leave a Big Tech company to sue Silicon Valley firms in AI cases, as the series tackles regulation and accountability.

  • On Oct. 8, CBS premieres "Cupertino," a legal drama from creators Robert and Michelle King exploring the artificial intelligence boom's legal and existential complexities set in Silicon Valley.
  • Creators Robert and Michelle King have maintained consistent quality since The Good Wife premiered in 2009, with their acclaimed slate including The Good Fight, Evil, and Elsbeth establishing them as leaders in smart, timely network drama.
  • Starring Mike Colter, Ella Stiller, and Rachel Keller, the show follows two fired attorneys launching a firm to challenge Big Tech titans, with Michael Price, a former in-house counsel, leading the legal crusade.
  • Cupertino balances season-long arcs with case-of-the-week episodes and is not "all AI is bad" propaganda, but makes a strong case for regulation and explores who is culpable for the sins of a computer.
  • Episodes address modern concerns including prediction markets, AI in medicine, and people allegedly driven to kill by chatbots, demonstrating the urgent need for guardrails in an increasingly automated world.
