EMMY AWARD AND TONY AWARD WINNER NATHAN LANE TO STAR ON “THE GOOD WIFE” IN RECURRING ROLE
NEW YORK, June 27, 2012 – THE GOOD WIFE has cast Emmy Award and Tony Award-winning actor Nathan Lane (“The Producers”) in a recurring role in season four, and will make his debut in September’s season premiere.
Lane will portray a bottom line-obsessed manager imposed on Lockhart & Gardner by the bank to cut costs and get the firm back to fiscal health. He finds himself at odds with Will, Diane and everyone else at the firm.
Lane is the latest in a stellar list of recurring guests for THE GOOD WIFE’s new season. Previously announced casting includes Maura Tierney, Marc Warren and Kristin Chenoweth.
THE GOOD WIFE, which stars Emmy Award and Golden Globe Award winner Julianna Margulies, is one of television’s most critically acclaimed dramas. In addition to receiving nine 2011 Primetime Emmy nominations, the most for a broadcast network series, the drama has won or been nominated for multiple awards, including the Peabody Awards, the Golden Globe Awards, the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the People’s Choice Awards. THE GOOD WIFE airs Sundays (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.


Now you guys are just messing with us. All these great guest stars! Is there an "april fools--style joke coming or are The Good Wife fans really that lucky? xD

ReplyDeleteWow, they're really pulling out all the stops for Season 4... I love it! And I can already imagine Nathan Lane fitting right in.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great. I LOVE when Nathan does serious roles.
ReplyDeleteI'd love if it's a musical. Nathan, Alan Cumming, Christine Baranski, and Mary Beth Peil (Jackie) are all veterans of musical theater.
