'The Good Fight' Will Bring Back Two Original Stars For Season 5

The Good Fight is bringing back two stars who departed last season.

Paramount+ announced this week that Cush Jumbo and Delroy Lindo will be back on the new season to give their characters, Lucca and Adrian, a proper goodbye.

“We couldn’t be more grateful that Delroy and Cush will be returning in season 5 to finish off their arcs,” showrunners Robert and Michelle King shared in a statement to TVLine. “We adore the actors and their characters, and are delighted to give the audience a chance to say a proper goodbye.”

Their returns in season five will finish out their characters’ storylines.

Cush opened up about leaving the show last May, saying that she’s “had the most amazing time over the last five years working with Robert, Michelle and the crews of both The Good Wife and The Good Fight.”

She added that she was “so excited to explore pastures new.”

The Good Fight season five has yet to set a return date, and was one of the shows shut down early due to the pandemic.

Cush Jumbo Exits 'The Good Fight' After Season Four

Cush Jumbo has left her series The Good Fight after four seasons.

The 34-year-old actress started playing Lucca Quinn in the final season of CBS’ The Good Wife and then she became one of the leads on the spinoff for CBS All Access.

The fourth season of The Good Fight was cut short due to the coronavirus pandemic. The seventh episode, which premiered this week, is now serving as the finale and Luca’s storyline was unable to be wrapped up.

“I have had the most amazing time over the last five years working with Robert, Michelle and the crews of both The Good Wife and The Good Fight. I will miss them all so much, but am so excited to explore pastures new. Due to the pandemic forcing us to shut down early we weren’t able to wrap up Lucca’s story fully and so I hope if schedules allow I can return next season to do that,” Cush said in a statement to TV Line.

We sure hope that Cush is able to return in season five to finish Lucca’s storyline!

Delroy Lindo, who plays Adrian Boseman, is also leaving the show ahead of season five.

'The Good Fight' Season 4 Will End Early Due to Pandemic, Season 5 Renewal Confirmed

We have some good news and some bad news for fans of The Good Fight.

First for the good news, CBS All Access has announced that the show has been renewed for an upcoming fifth season. The bad news is that the current fourth season is being cut short and will end after the seventh episode.

Season four was intended to have 10 episodes, but the final three episodes could not be made because of the pandemic. The season will end on Thursday, May 28.

“It’s been weird to not be able to finish the fourth season,” said series creators Robert and Michelle King. “It left the story in even more absurd a place than usual. So we’re thrilled that CBS All Access wants to bring The Good Fight back for an additional season, and we know what story we’re planning to tell. It’s like getting the answers to the SAT ahead of time.”

CBS All Access just sold a series to The CW to be aired later this fall!

The first trailer for The Good Fight season four has been released!

Christine Baranski is back and ready for action as Diane Lockhart in the CBS All Access series.

Suddenly, all of their decisions can be second-guessed by the giant firm that is literally on top of them.
