Alan Cumming has signed a deal to stay on CBS’s “The Good Wife” as a regular for three additional seasons, reports Deadline.com.

Cumming joined the program in the first season in a recurring role and became a regular in the second season, which is currently airing, the story notes.

While "The Good Wife" hasn’t yet been renewed for a third season, its renewal is considered likely given the show’s acclaim.

Cumming’s character, campaign strategist Eli Gold, just helped Peter Florrick win election as District Attorney and has been asked to help Florrick look to his next step, a Senate campaign, in the most recent episode, the piece says.
