Contract problems and plot reasons. The objective reason for "A Good Wife" is that actor josh charles only signed a four-year contract with the crew. In the fifth year, josh charles agreed to shoot half of it because of Alicia's actor Julianne Magris. Otherwise, Josh Charles' plan for the fifth year of filming "A Good Wife" is to transform into a director and plan a new life with his wife who has ended her long-distance relationship. From the plot, the proud wife wants to express that the person she loves is gone, but life goes on. This is why Will, the character played by josh charles, was written to death. Will's death changed Alicia completely, and death also created a new core for the play. These twists and turns can ensure that the play is unconventional and let the characters live.
