'The Good Wife' spinoff spoilers: the Kings admit major script revision to 'The Good Fight' after Donald Trump's victory

To keep up with the current events, series creators Robert and Michelle King had to make a last-minute revision on the script of "The Good Fight" in the middle of the show's production.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the series creators admitted that they based the script for the upcoming spinoff of "The Good Wife" on Hillary Clinton's presumed victory during the U.S. presidential election in November.

"Like most pollsters, we thought Hillary Clinton would win the presidency, so we wrote scenes about Diane retiring from the law because she 'broke every glass ceiling,'" the series creators stated on 'The Good Fight' script page that they presented to the publication. "Obviously we needed to rewrite — on the eighth day of shooting," they continued.

Based on the script, the spinoff series will begin with Diane Lockhart (Christine Baranski) "stunned and shell-shocked" as she watches the presidential inauguration. This is the Kings' way of showing the true-to-life reactions through fiction. "The show tends to be a satire of the liberal mindset," the Kings stated, "so it felt funny to play off Diane's stunned reaction to the inauguration."

Early reports claimed that "The Good Fight" will take off a year after the events that happened during the finale of "The Good Wife" in which Diane had to go back to work after her retirement when all her savings were wiped out due to a financial scam.

Diane will be working with Lucca Quinn (Cush Jumbo) at one of the top law firms in Chicago after her return from retirement. They will be joined by Diane's goddaughter Maia (Rose Leslie) after she passed the bar.

The spinoff series will also introduce Robert Boseman (Delroy Lindo) as one of Diane's associates, Marissa Gold (Sarah Steele) as Diane's secretary, and Colin (Justin Bartha), a potential love interest for Lucca. "CSI" star Paul Guilfoyle will also appear in a recurring role as Henry, Maia's father.

"The Good Fight" will premiere on CBS All Access on Sunday, Feb. 19, 2017.
