The Good Fight‘s upcoming sixth and remaining season will function a doozy of a spoiler about… The Good Wife.
In the season’s second episode, which drops Sept. 15 on Paramount+, Alan Cumming’s returning Eli Gold drops some stunning intel about Alicia and Peter, the legacy Good Wife characters originated by Julianna Margulies and Chris Noth, respectively (neither of whom seem within the episode). The scene finds Eli offering Diane (Christine Baranski) with a present-day replace on the Florricks, who had been final seen in The Good Wife finale in May 2016. Viewers can even be taught the present state of Diane’s relationship with Alicia within the wake of the slap heard ’around the world.
As we beforehand reported, Margulies won’t be among the many Good Wife vets (who along with Cumming’s Eli consists of Carrie Preston’s Elsbeth Tascioni) paying a go to throughout the spinoff’s farewell season. “It’s not our expectation that she is going to come back,” co-creator Michelle King instructed TVLine again in May.
A previous try to lure Margulies to The Good Fight for a three-episode arc in Season 3 fell aside over cash, with the actress telling our sister pub Deadline again in 2019 that the streamer (then-named CBS All Access) “refused to pay” her the per-episode wage she was incomes on The Good Wife. Instead, she claimed that they supplied her a guest-star price.
The Good Fight‘s 10-episode swan music kicks off Sept. 8 on Paramount+.
