The Good Wife: Will Gardner GIFs

Will Gardner’s (Josh Charles) shocking death on The Good Wife broke more hearts than Alicia Florrick’s (Julianna Margulies). Now, over a year later, that pain might come back to life for fans when the CBS drama’s series finale airs Sunday at 9 p.m. Amid rampant speculation that Charles appears in the final episode, showrunner Michelle King passed up a chance to shut down the chatter during the Tribeca Film Festival in April. “I’ve heard that rumor,” she told Entertainment Weekly editor Henry Goldblatt at the show’s farewell talk.
