News courtesy TV Guide: Before she heads to ABC’s mid-season Off the Map, Mamie Gummer will reprise her role as prosecutor Nancy Crozier on The Good Wife, TVGuide.com has learned. The 27-year-old actress, and daughter of Meryl Streep, will return in the fourth episode of the season. After working on opposite sides of a murder case last season, Nancy and Alicia (Julianna Margulies) will team up as co-counsels representing a DJ and security team who are being sued for a fatal stampede at a rave concert. Gummer will next star in Shonda Rhimes’ new series Off the Map, about a medical clinic in South America. The series is scheduled to debut midseason on ABC.

Many thanks to Tina for providing me with high quality screencaps of Mamie’s guest starring role on “The Good Wife”. Thanks a lot! :-)

Article courtesy the Orlando Sentinel: Meryl Streep earned a record 16th Oscar nomination yesterday. ABC’s Diane Sawyer called it Streep’s ““sweet 16.” Streep enjoyed a sweet feat of another variety last night: America saw her daughter Mamie Gummer in action on “The Good Wife”. When you inspire your child to follow in your footsteps, could that be a bigger prize than an Oscar? Gummer was sensational as a young attorney whose aw-shucks, I’m-not-sure-what-I’m-doing manner confounded Alicia Florrick (Julianna Margulies) and fellow attorneys. Like the “Law & Order” shows, “The Good Wife” shrewdly draws on New York stage actors for guest roles. Dylan Baker kept viewers guessing as a seedy spouse suspected of murdering his wife. There were colorful turns by Peter Gerety as a judge and Titus Welliver as the district attorney. (Welliver was doing double-duty last night — he was also on “Lost.”) But Gummer was the standout. You’re going to be seeing a lot of this young woman. Having Meryl Streep as your mother may offer the best acting lessons in the world.

According to this source, Mamie will be guest starring on “The Good Wife” “Bad” Episode 13 which airs Tuesday February 2 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on CBS. Mamie plays bumbling prosecutor Nancy Crozier. Tensions are high as Peter’s appeal trial begins and Alicia defends a wealthy client in civil court whose innocence she doubts, even after he’s found not guilty in criminal court of murdering his wife. Meanwhile, Diane decides to take precautions when a felon she successfully prosecuted is about to be released from prison, on “The Good Wife”, Tuesday Feb. 2 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
