Cush Jumbo exits The Good Fight

TVLine

Jumbo is leaving behind her attorney Lucca Quinn character after four seasons on The Good Fight, a role she originated on the final season of The Good Wife. Both Jumbo and creators Robert and Michelle King are hoping that she can properly wrap up her character next season. “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," Jumbo said in a statement to TVLine. "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.” The Kings said in their own statement: “We’ve loved every moment of working with Cush for the last five years and everyone in The Good Fight universe will miss her terribly. Given the pandemic-forced premature ending of Season 4, it’s our hope that Cush will be able to return when we resume filming Season 5 in order to give Lucca a proper send-off.”
