‘The Good Fight’ Trailer: ‘The Good Wife’ Spinoff Features Diane Losing It All and Rising From The Ashes

It’s been eight months since the CBS drama “The Good Wife” left the airwaves with its divisive finale, but the story will soon continue in a new spinoff of the series exclusively for CBS’ streaming service CBS All Access. “The Good Fight” will take place a year after the events of the finale and will follow Diane Lockhart (Christine Baranski) and her mentor and goddaughter Maia (Rose Leslie) as they struggle with the devastating aftermath of a financial scam. The two are forced out of Lockhart & Lee and as such must join Lucca Quinn (Cush Jumbo) at one of Chicago’s pre-eminent law firms. The series co-stars Delroy Lindo (“Malcolm X”), Sarah Steele (“Margaret”), Justin Bartha (“The Hangover”) and Erica Tazel (“Justified”). Watch a trailer for the series below.
