Josh Charles will be returning for episode 19, season 5 of The Good Wife but not as the CBS legal drama's favorite leading man, Will Gardner.

Kalinda Next in Line to Leave Show After Will?     

The actor's directing skills will be on display as he works the action from behind the camera for episode 19, titled Tying the Knot. This is not the first time Charles has directed an episode for the show. The character's and plot for Tying the Knot are also familiar to Charles as one of Alicia's creepiest client's will be returning on the show, a client that Will Gardner has also had to suffer time and time again. The wife-murderer Colin Sweeney (Dylan Baker), who Lockhart/Gardner has defended, will take center stage in Tying the Knot.

In the past, Alicia felt cheated by Sweeney when she helped negotiate the case incriminating him for the murder of his wife, as he later told her that he actually did commit the crime. Then again he put her in an extremely sticky situation wherein he called Alicia to the scene of the crime, making her a witness when the body is discovered in his home.

Alicia's "Fun Chemistry" With Finn Polmar to Lead to an Affair?    

Judging by the promo it seems like Sweeney's back with a new wife, his third or fourth and Alicia's is wary about where this might be headed. Maybe the couple are looking to get a pre-nup signed. The last time Sweeney made an appearance on the show, Alicia had to deal with the case of his illegitimate child.

Episode 19 will air on CBS at 9 p.m. on April 27.
