Amanda Peet to Befriend Alicia on The Good Wife

at .

Another day, another impressive casting tidbit for The Good Wife Season 4.

Amanda Peet (Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Bent) will recur on the CBS drama as a lawyer who hires Lockhart/Gardner to represent her in a sexual assault case. Look for her to grow especially close to Alicia both personally and professionally.

Peet is the latest major name to land a role on the hit CBS drama. She joins:

  • Maura Tierney as a Chicago billionaire wooed by Eli for a donation to Peter's campaign.
  • Kristin Chenoweth as a political reporter looking into the Florricks.
  • Nathan Lane as an accountant trying to fix the firm's finances.
  • Marc Warren as Kalinda’s estranged, dangerous husband.

The Good Wife returns with new episodes on Sunday, September 30.
