Christine Baranski hopes 'Good Fight' has 'a positive message' for women

PASADENA , Calif., Jan. 9 (UPI) -- Christine Baranski will soon be seen returning to her signature role of legal eagle Diane Lockhart in the upcoming The Good Wife spinoff The Good Fight.

"The show is called #TheGoodFight and it is about the passing of power from one generation to another," the show's Twitter account quoted Baranski as saying at the Television Critics Association winter press tour in Pasadena Monday.

"So I'm hoping the show has a positive message of women needing to continue," she added.

"Familiar faces. Unexpected turns. Things get nasty on #TheGoodFight starting February 19," reads another tweet from The Good Fight account, which accompanied a 2-minute trailer for the drama.

To stream on CBS All Access, the show co-stars Cush Jumbo, Rose Leslie, Delroy Lindo, Justin Bartha, Sarah Steele and Erica Tazel, and follows Diane as she tries to rebuild after being financially ruined.
