Carrie Preston and Michael Emerson on the Violent End of His ‘Elsbeth’ Arc, and Why It Was Hard to Film After 26 Years of Marriage: ‘I Never Like Watching Him [SPOILER]’
'Elsbeth' star Carrie Preston and her real-life husband Michael Emerson talk about their characters' final showdown.
In the nearly 15 years since her first appearance on “The Good Wife,” audiences have watched Elsbeth Tascioni ( Carrie Preston), the brilliant and eccentric lawyer turned police “investigator,” live by the rule of law and the belief that justice will win in the end. After spending much of the season locking horns with corrupt Judge Milton Crawford ( Michael Emerson), who she believes killed a man to cover up his past transgressions, Elsbeth gets a front-row seat to his assassination by the very person whose name she was working to clear. Preston tells Variety that Crawford’s final act and the dark path it sends Elsbeth down marks a major turning point for the series, a moment that she shares –– at least as adversaries –– with Emerson, her real-life husband of 26 years.
