‘The Good Wife’ Season 4 Promo Pits Julianna Margulies Against Kristin Chenoweth (Video)

The first trailer for the new season The Good Wife has debuted on the web.

In it, Alicia (Julianna Margulies) is hounded by a political reporter (Kristin Chenoweth) tasked with investigating the truth behind her marriage to embattled politician Peter (Chris Noth). Chenoweth’s alter-ego gets straight to the point: “Why do you stay with your husband?”

“I’m committed to a marriage. I don’t like breaking commitments,” Alicia fires back.

“But he broke his commitment to you.”

“Yes, but I won’t break my commitment to him.”

Who’s ready for the next round?

Other developments at Lockhart Gardner: Will’s (Josh Charles) suspension is also being lifted when The Good Wife returns next month and Kalinda’s (Archie Panjabi) mysterious/dangerous husband (Marc Warren) finally makes his big debut. Judging from the fight scenes, they won’t be missing a beat.

The Good Wife premieres 9 p.m. Sept. 30 on CBS.
