“Elsbeth” is making its way back to TV screens for Season 3, and the quirky attorney is ready to take on some new cases.
During a June interview with TheWrap, the former “The Good Wife” and “The Good Fight” star called her “Elsbeth” spinoff show her “dream job.”
“This is something I’ve wanted and hoped to get, but never really dreamed that I would at this stage in my life,” she said at the time. “So the fact that it’s happening now makes me appreciate it maybe more than had it happened in my 20s.”
The series was co-created and is executive produced by Robert and Michelle King along with executive producers Liz Glotzer and Jonathan Tolins, who also serves as showrunner.
