Peter Florrick's presidential run is going to be as real as it gets since he will run against real-life 2016 presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton in Season 7 of "The Good Wife."

"The Good Wife" co-creator Robert King revealed that Peter is set to launch a presidential campaign to win the Democratic ticket in the upcoming season of the CBS legal drama.

"If Peter runs, he is running against Hillary," King told TVLine, adding that it is "amazing" CBS is "letting us do that."

According to King, Season 7's campaign storyline will be reflective of the official primary timeline so that when "the Iowa Caucus happens [on Feb. 1], it's going to happen in our show. We're trying to parallel what's happening on our show with what's happening in reality."

King also admitted that trying to parallel what is actually happening in the Democratic primary with what is happening on the series is a challenge being that the show since the episodes are not shot in real time.

"The difficult thing for us is we started writing these scripts in June, so you're always kind of guessing where things are going," King explained. "And we're stunned in politics how things change overnight. We're not sure if Biden will enter the race at this point. We have the ability to ADR some lines in if that's necessary, but we're kind of playing the betting game at this point."

Co-creator Michelle King went on to say that there is no plan to mention GOP frontrunner Donald Trump in the show.

"Peter is running on the democratic ticket, so at this point there's not been reason to bring [him] up," she said.

The showrunners, Robert and Michelle King, also recently addressed the controversy surrounding Archie Panjabi's departure from the show in the Season 6 finale.

During the finale, Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and her former friend and confidant, Kalinda, met at a bar and shared two shots of tequila right before Kalinda told her that she was leaving. This marked the first time that the private investigator and Alicia appeared in the same scene in two years.

However, fans were not happy when it was later revealed that the two actresses did not actually film their final scene together in the same room, reported CarterMatt.

When questioned about whether or not Alicia and Kalinda's final scene together was computer generated, Robert told TVLine that it was "not the intent" to disappointed their fans, reports TVLine.

"The story of Alicia and Kalinda seemed to be a story about pride getting in the way of friendship," he said, noting that their relationship just "could not get over" the hurdle of Kalinda sleeping with Peter.

"We are certainly never ever hoping to hurt the fans' feelings or make them feel like that trust has been broken," added Michelle.

The husband and wife duo also avoided addressing speculation that the behind-the-scenes drama caused a rift between the two actresses.

"We fake everything in the show, so I can address this on a storytelling level that there was no intent ever to dupe the viewers. We'll be an open book there...the only thing I will address is the storytelling," Robert King said. "The mechanics of how we do our show is its own thing and we're usually an open book about it, until it comes down to gossip."

The new season of "The Good Wife" kicks off on Sunday, Oct. 4 at 9 p.m. EDT on CBS.
