The Good Wife co-creator Robert King has hinted that Cary (Matt Czuchry) will have an expanded role in season three.

King told TV Line that the character’s role will change as Peter Florrick (Chris Noth) takes over from Glenn Childs (Titus Welliver) as State’s Attorney.

“We’ll see things more and more from Cary’s point of view,” promised the producer.

King added that he had decided to expand Czuchry’s role on the CBS legal drama after being impressed with the actor’s performance in the second season.

“Matt is someone who I thought just exploded the second year by putting him [in the State's Attorney office],” he revealed. “Cary was someone who was not played as villainous, but someone whose side of things you understood.”

Czuchry previously admitted that he is looking forward to exploring the new “dynamic” of Cary’s relationship with Peter and Eli (Alan Cumming).

The Good Wife will return to CBS on Sunday, September 25.

Last week was a big one for The Good Wife’s Matt Czuchry. His character, Cary Agos, successfully convicted a man for Murder I, negotiated a raise at the Cook County state’s attorney’s office, and squared off against Blake (Scott Porter), rival of his sometime BFF, Kalinda (Archie Panjabi). We met Czuchry at New York’s Café Minerva last week, upon his return from the SAG Awards, where co-star Julianna Margulies (a.k.a. Alicia Florrick) had won for Best Actress in a TV drama. Tennessee-raised, he was unfailingly polite, even rearranging his silverware neatly as he got up from the table.

Cary seems to be very revenge-minded this season.
Winning that competition [for the associate position at Lockhart Gardner] was the biggest moment of his life, and Alicia undercut him by using her name. So at the beginning of the second season, it is very personal for him against Alicia. But I think it’s moving away from that. Getting fired humbled him. He’s gone from this giant firm to the SA’s office where he probably gets his own coffee. He’s more grounded and mature.
