Julianna Margulies in “The Good Wife”; Jeff Neumann/CBS(NEW YORK) — The Good Wife may be ending next month after seven seasons, but fans could get more of the CBS political drama.
Co-creator Robert King said “there is a chance” of a spin-off during a panel discussion at the Tribeca Film Festival Sunday night.
“CBS seems to be very motivated. They like these characters, but they also like the world and all these subsidiary characters, so there may be a chance,” he added, according to E! News.
The show’s creators — King, along with wife Michelle — also addressed rumors that actor Josh Charles would return in a flashback scene before the series ends May 8. Fans of the show will remember that Charles’ character, Will Gardner, was killed off in season five.
“I’ve heard that rumor,” Michelle King said during the panel discussion, which also included the show’s star Julianna Margulies, who plays junior litigator Alicia Florrick, along with her co-stars Matt Czuchry and Cush Jumbo.
“I heard that Peter is going to be starting another affair,” she quipped. “I heard that Alicia and Eli kissed. I heard that Alicia and Jason ran off happily together. And I heard that Michelle Obama guest starred. And I will tell you that one of those is true.”
She did say that whomever returns, the series finale will be “satisfying, uplifting and sad” for viewers.
