#JOSH CHARLES FULL#
And you’ve got to remember, I’ve been playing the character for four full seasons. It was something that I thought very long about. You make these decisions when you make them, and it’s no reflection of the show, it was just my own sort of internal process.
I was always going to try to give the show a few episodes this year to help them arc it out, but I’m glad that we ended up doing more.ĪWARDSLINE: After you found out what was in store for your character in season five, did you pause for a second and reconsider leaving?ĬHARLES: No. It was just a creative decision for me wanting to go and explore new stuff-in my life, in my career. Why was that?ĬHARLES: I would rather not bore people with contract details, but the reality is that I had a very short-term deal, it was renewed a couple of times over, and at the end of the fourth year my contract was up, and I chose not to renew. So, yeah, I wasn’t really looking to do a series, per se, but this one came around, and I’m glad it did.ĪWARDSLINE: You never signed a standard seven-year deal, it was more you re-upping every year. I liked the fact that it was shooting in New York and Julianna (Margulies), who was a friend, was doing it. JOSH CHARLES: I don’t think I particularly was, but it came my way, and I thought it was really well written.
#JOSH CHARLES SERIES#
Charles already has one Emmy nom for The Good Wife and now is looking to join a long list of actors who won supporting acting drama Emmys after their characters were killed off, including Drea de Matteo and Joe Pantoliano of The Sopranos, Margo Martindale of Justified and, most recently, Boardwalk Empire’s Bobby Cannavale.ĪWARDSLINE: Were you looking to do a series when you were approached for The Good Wife? This was the longest TV stint for Charles-he previously toplined Aaron Sorkin’s critically praised ABC comedy Sports Night, which ran for two years in the late ’90s. Josh Charles was part of one of the most shocking moments of the year when his character Will Gardner was gunned down on CBS’ The Good Wife.
