On April 23rd, there were several reports that Clayne Crawford’s actions on the set of Lethal Weapon were making people feel uncomfortable. The next day, the actor confirmed that he had some problems on the set and was sorry about how he handled the situations.
I guess his apology was good enough for the producers because The Hollywood Reporter is saying that he was fired from the Fox show that has not yet been picked up for a third season. The trade also says that they are looking to recast the role. They have offered it to a few actors who have all turned down the offer.
I say cast either Ashton Kutcher or Mark-Paul Gosselaar in the part because both actors have successfully come on to show as a replacement and gave it a few more seasons. Or give the role to Chace Crawford because, well, their names are similar? Or better yet, just cancel it? Give us some revivals instead of a small screen version of a big screen movie.
We will probably find out more on Monday when Fox announces it plans for next season. Do you want to see the police show back for another season or is it time to let it go?
The moral of this story actors, is count to 10 before you lose it on the set or you will lose your job.
