Jay Roach is directing the Playtone-produced project, which also stars Woody Harrelson.
THE GOOD WIFE (CBS) - Kelli Giddish ("Chase") is set to guest star on the show's final two episodes of the season. She'll play an investigator for Lockhart Gardner who used to work with Archie Panjabi's character, a role which may continue into season three.

Greg Mottola is directing.
