Who is in the cast of Matlock?

Kathy Bates as Madeline “Matty” Matlock (aka Madeline Kingston)

"Matty really now enjoys being useful," Bates told Parade on a visit to the Matlock set. "That’s part of ageism, too, which is a whole other level that we are addressing here, is that she gets in that way with the discriminatory deal that they have against ageism and others. She feels useful in a way that she hasn’t in a long time. She’s been very depressed in the last ten years since her daughter passed away. Now this has rejuvenated her. So, there’s that level that’s going on that’s totally unexpected."

What remains to be seen is if Bates will continue to use the Matty Matlock identity when she returns for Season 2 or if she will assume her true identity of Madeline Kingston.

"There was this line in one of the episodes where Madeline Matlock says, 'We’re not quite friends, but we’re not just colleagues,'" Marshall told Parade. "I really loved that line because that’s exactly where we are right now. But you will start to see once the castle wall that Olympia has upstarts to come down, which only happens with trust, that that becomes yet another love story outside of Olympia and Julian, the love story that you will see between Olympia and Madeline Matlock."

"For me the challenge was, as a lawyer, you have to have a certain amount of gravity and seriousness," Ritter told Parade. "In my life growing up, my general energy when dealing with people is the equivalent of when you see a dog in the park, see a bigger dog and they turn and they show their bellies. There’d be people who would make a decision about me coming up like, 'Who do you think you are?' And I had to be like, 'I’m not a threat, I’m not in this fight with you. You win whatever fight. You’re bigger than me, I’m not a part of it.' So, there was an element doing this character who has to really stand his ground a lot of times where I was very nervous about that feeling."

"It's about picking out which cases are going to articulate or dramatize certain things so that it takes some of the weight off of the storytelling, so that she doesn’t have to say, 'I’m feeling this way,'" showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman told Parade. "Because it’s Kathy Bates, we can go to her as they’re talking about a case with a look, and you understand this is taking her back to her personal story. And it’s a step on that journey, too. It allows us to do a lot at once. I always say that every line has to do three things. It has to hide the exposition, show some emotion and also be amusing. Not when we’re in the deep, heavy stuff. They’re like origami lines is kind of what I describe it as. They can’t just serve as one thing, because we have a lot to pack into our episodes."

Are there any spoilers for Season 2 of Matlock?

Matty questions the paternity of the man claiming to be Alfie’s father (Nico Nikotera). Also, the team takes on an arson case while Olympia tries to protect Julian’s involvement in the Wellbrexa case.

“We leave Matty’s life in a bit of a cliffhanger in terms of things that are happening to her in her life, professionally and personally. So, we’re going to be digging into that. And then what I’m thinking about for next season is just how those twist together.
