Rose Leslie will not be back for season 4 of The Good Fight. 

The 32-year-old actress, who played lawyer Maia Rindell, has exited the CBS All Access courtroom drama. She appeared in the first three seasons of the series.

News of Leslie’s departure was confirmed by creators Robert and Michelle King while speaking to at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday. The duo told TVLine that the previous season’s final episode was her “sendoff.” This will kind of make sense to The Good Fight fans as the season 3 finale saw Maia head off to Washington DC to launch a new firm with Michael Sheen’s Roland Blum.

Leslie joins two other original cast-mates who are leaving the show — Justin Bartha and Erica Tazel. Staying abroad for the forthcoming season are Audra McDonald, Michael Boatman, and Nyambi Nyambi. 

The Good Fight‘s 10-episode fourth season is slated for next year.

Ginnifer Goodwin has been tapped to star in Why Women Kill.

News of her casting comes just days after it was announced that Lucy Liu has joined CBS All Access’ upcoming dark comedic drama.

The news that Goodwin, best known for her role as Snow White on Once Upon a Time, will go back in time to the ‘60s in Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry’s forthcoming dramedy was announced by the streaming service Tuesday. 

Why Women Kill follows 3 women living in 3 different decades — a housewife in the ‘60s, a socialite in the ‘80s (Liu), and a lawyer in 2018; each dealing with infidelity in their marriages. According to Entertainment Tonight, Goodwin will play Beth Ann, whose story takes place in 1963. The official description of the ideal housewife is, “She is kind, cheerful and warm. But if you get too close, you start to see that she wears a mask to hide her pain. Beth Ann’s whole world revolves around her husband, and so she is understandably defensive and immediately in denial when told Rob is having an affair. Determined to learn the sordid details for herself, Beth Ann is in for a life-changing shift of perspective.”

Michelle Yeoh is in talks to reprise her Star Trek Discovery role of Captain Emperor Georgiou.

The star is in negotiations with producers at CBS Television Studios. The Crazy Rich Asians star is in talks with the network to see her character get a spin-off into a new series. Should a stand-alone Captain Emperor Georgiou series happen at CBS All Access, it would be the fifth overall in CBS All Access’ Star Trek franchise.

As the franchise grows and the Trekverse expands, it seems there’s room for Yeoh to helm her own fleet. The stand-alone series would most likely focus on her character’s adventures in Starfleet’s Section 31 division, the secret organization first introduced on the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine series.

Representatives for CBS All Access and CBS TV Studios declined to comment.

Get ready for more Trek with the first-ever official Star Trek series ordered. 

The Star Trek universe is expanding with the streaming service green-lighting the new animated series titled Star Trek: Lower Decks. 

CBS All Access has put in a two-season order for a half-hour animated show – the service’s first original animated series helmed by Rick and Morty head writer Mike McMahan. According to the service, the comedy will focus “on the support crew serving on one of Starfleet’s least important ships.”

“Mike won our hearts with his first sentence: ‘I want to do a show about the people who put the yellow cartridge in the food replicator so a banana can come out the other end,’” said executive producer Alex Kurtzman. “His cat’s name is Riker. His son’s name is Sagan. The man is committed. He’s brilliantly funny and knows every inch of every Trek episode, and that’s his secret sauce: he writes with the pure, joyful heart of a true fan. As we broaden the world of Trek to fans of all ages, we’re so excited to include Mike’s extraordinary voice.”

He continued: “As a life-long Trekkie, it’s a surreal and wonderful dream come true to be a part of this new era of Star Trek. While Star Trek: Lower Decks is a half-hour, animated show at its core, it’s undeniably Trek — and I promise not to add an episode at the very end that reveals the whole thing took place in a training program.”

While plot details are being kept under wraps, fans already know that McMahan is well versed in writing for Trek. In 2011 he began a Twitter account where he posted fake plots for Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Kim Cattrall has joined the cast of Tell Me a Story that will air on CBS All Access. 

The 61-year-old actress is set for a lead role, starring opposite Billy Magnussen in the upcoming psychological thriller created by Kevin Williamson and Aaron Kaplan. The two also serve as executive producers alongside Dana Honor and Liz Friedlander.

Written by Williamson, the series is set in modern-day New York City, taking the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted. A tale of love, loss, greed, revenge, and murder, the first season is a subversive melange of “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Hansel and Gretel.”

Cattrall will play Colleen, a not so traditional grandmother. When her son moves back home, this grannie has to grow up fast and take on the parental duties to protect her family against a very dark threat.

Cattrall credits include the HBO Canada series Sensitive Skin, the Swedish television series Modus and two mini-series, The Witness for the Prosecution, and Any Human Heart.

“Mike won our hearts with his first sentence: ‘I want to do a show about the people who put the yellow cartridge in the food replicator so a banana can come out the other end,’” said executive producer Alex Kurtzman. “His cat’s name is Riker.

Kim Cattrall has joined the cast of Tell Me a Story that will air on CBS All Access. 

The 61-year-old actress is set for a lead role, starring opposite Billy Magnussen in the upcoming psychological thriller created by Kevin Williamson and Aaron Kaplan. The two also serve as executive producers alongside Dana Honor and Liz Friedlander.

Written by Williamson, the series is set in modern-day New York City, taking the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted. A tale of love, loss, greed, revenge, and murder, the first season is a subversive melange of “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Hansel and Gretel.”

Cattrall will play Colleen, a not so traditional grandmother. When her son moves back home, this grannie has to grow up fast and take on the parental duties to protect her family against a very dark threat.

Cattrall credits include the HBO Canada series Sensitive Skin, the Swedish television series Modus and two mini-series, The Witness for the Prosecution, and Any Human Heart.
