The Good Fight

In the new series, an enormous financial scam has destroyed the reputation of a young lawyer, Maia, while simultaneously wiping out her mentor Diane Lockhart’s savings. Forced out of Lockhart & Lee, they join Lucca Quinn at one of Chicago’s pre-eminent law firms.

Cast of the show for season 5?

Christine Baranski is highly likely to reappear in her role as there isn’t a show without her. We’d expect Cush Jumbo, Nyambi Nyambi, Delroy Lindo, Audra McDonald, Sarah Steele, Michael Boatman, Zach Grenier, John Larroquette, and Hugh Dancy to also all return in some way.

Robert and Michelle King serve as show runners and executive producers of the series, which they co-created with Phil Alden Robinson. Ridley Scott, David W. Zucker, Liz Glotzer, Brooke Kennedy and William Finkelstein also serve as executive producers.

Is it true that season 5 will make up for the shortened season 4?

Due to the ongoing halt in the production since early March, the season 4 which was supposed to be 10-episodes long, concluded with episode 7 on Thursday, May 28. CBS offered an explanation for the same in an interaction with a leading website.
