Archie Panjabi Calls Julianna Margulies a Liar on Twitter: The Good Wife Feud Rages On
“The Good Wife” feud rages on. On Sunday October 4 the Season 7 premiere of “The Good Wife” aired on CBS – and reignited rumors of the ongoing bitter feud between Julianna Margulies and Archie Panjabi. Panjabi, who played the part of Kalinda Sharma was reportedly fighting with Alicia Florrick portrayer Julianna – and several sources said there was some major tensions between the two women on the CBS drama set.
Panjabi exited “The Good Wife” at the end of Season 6 – and an awkward scene filmed between herself and Magulies, where the women refused to be filmed together, further fueled rumors of the two women’s feud. In the Season 6 finale of “The Good Wife,” Margulies and Panjabi’s characters met up at a bar and said some tense goodbyes before Kalinda Sharma skipped town.
The scene was awkward to begin with, but even more awkward when some eagle-eyed fans noticed that the backgrounds were different – and Julianna and Archie filmed the scenes separately and creator Robert King had the footage edited to make it appear that the two women were speaking to each other.
Vulture caught up with Julianna Margulies at a recent event, and asked her about the reported feud between herself and Archie Panjabi. Julianna insisted that the feud was all “gossip” and there was no bad blood between the two actresses.
Julianna dished to Vulture, “It was shot the way Robert wanted to shoot it, and the story line, too. You also have to remember, there’s difficulty … [Panjabi] was also doing another show, called The Fall. I went along with whatever Robert asked me to do and I did it happily.”
Archie Panjabi disagrees though. As soon as Alicia’s interview hit the Internet, Archie took to Twitter to add her own two cents and tweeted, “@TheFallTV was not even in production at that time and I was in New York ready to film the scene!” Awkward! Panjabi clearly called Margulies a liar on Twitter.
So, if Panjabi’s schedule wasn’t an issue – and the filming was changed at the last minute, it seems pretty obvious there is some truth to the feud rumors. What do you think happened between Archie and Julianna on “The Good Wife?” Why would Julianna Margulies say there was no feud, if that obviously wasn’t the case?
