CBS TV Studios said today that The Hangover veteran Justin Bartha will be a series regular on "The Good Fight", which bows in February on CBS before moving to its digital platform CBS All Access.
Bartha will play Colin, a rising star in the State’s Attorney’s office and Chicago’s most eligible bachelor. Romantic sparks begin to fly when he finds himself going up against Lucca (Cush Jumbo) in the courtroom.
“Whenever you’re looking for a romantic lead, you look for someone who can play the comedy and the sexuality, but even more importantly is the intelligence,” EPs Robert and Michelle King said in a statement.
“And that’s what we love about Justin: He can play all three — the comedy and the sexuality, but he’s also convincing as a tough intellectual foe to Cush Jumbo in court.”
