Trivia
– During an Emmy roundtable for “Hollywood Reporter” in 2014, Julianna Margulies revealed that she was only the third choice for the lead part on the show. Ashley Judd and Helen Hunt turned down the role of Alicia Florrick.
– Julianna Margulies wore a wig for her character and spent a reported fourteen hours a day, five days a week, and nine months out of the year working on this show.
– According to Julianna Margulies, after three exhausting years juggling the demanding show schedule and dealing with her baby’s first years, she made a deal with Creators Robert King and Michelle King. Starting in season four, for those big courtroom scenes that take several hours to be filmed completely, Margulies would shoot the scenes where Alicia is an active part first, then they would shoot scenes with the other cast members, where she would have to be in the background for coverage once or twice, and then she would leave the set to prepare her next scenes, or have the rest of the day off.
– The show was set in Chicago, but filmed in New York City. The pilot was filmed in Canada, and filming was planned to continue there, but Julianna Margulies asked the producers to shoot in New York City, because she had just become a mother, and couldn’t leave for Canada for nine months a year.
– Julianna Margulies won two Emmy awards for her performance – one in 2011 and one in 2014. She was nominated a total of four times.
– Julianna Margulies always wanted Alicia to leave Peter (Chris Noth), but believed she wouldn’t leave him until she found true love.
