‘The Morning Show’ Books Julianna Margulies for a Season 3 Return

“The Good Wife” alum Julianna Margulies has booked her return to “The Morning Show.”

The actress will return in a major recurring role as UBA news anchor Laura Peterson on the Apple TV+ drama.

Marguiles rejoins a cast that includes Billy Crudup, Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon. As TheWrap reported earlier this month, Jon Hamm has joined Season 3 in a key role.

The Emmy-winning “Mad Men” alum will play Paul Marks, described as a corporate titan who sets his sights on UBA, pulling Cory (Crudup), Alex (Aniston) and Bradley (Witherspoon) into his powerful orbit.

Production on “The Morning Show” Season 3 will kick off later this month, the streamer confirmed in early August. Charlotte Stoudt, who has an overall multiyear deal with Apple TV+, will serve as showrunner and executive producer.
