Maura Tierney was suppose to star in the upcoming drama Parenthood on NBC, but today it was reported that she was forced to pull out of the show because her breast cancer treatment will take longer than originally thought according to
The Hollywood Reporter.
“Ms. Tierney and her doctors remain confident that the outcome of her treatments will be positive,” Tierney’s spokeswoman said Thursday. “She is deeply disappointed that she will not be able to rejoin such a highly respected, talented, fun and funny group of actors and wishes to thank Jason Katims and NBC for their patience and support.”
NBC delayed the start of production of Parenthood and even moved the show to midseason to accommodate her medical needs, but sadly she needs more time. Let’s pray that she is better and cancer-free soon.
