Delroy Lindo to play attorney Robert Boseman in crime drama series The Good Wife

The 63-year-old "Romeo Must Die" star Delroy Lindo has joined the star cast of popular crime drama series "The Good Wife". Lindo will play attorney Robert Boseman, who begins poaching Diane's (Christine Baranski) associates and clients when she gets into financial trouble, reported Entertainment Weekly.

"Boseman is a character who dominates every scene, intimidates every lawyer, and is beloved by every client. "He needs to look like a Chicago lawyer, but have a Shakespearean facility with language, and Delroy Lindo was really the only actor who came to mind," executive producers and show runners Robert and Michelle King said. Lindo has previously starred in a series of short-lived shows, "The Chicago Code", "Believe" and "Blood & Oil".
