Is Damon Wayans leaving Lethal Weapon for good? Recently, creator Matt Miller discussed the future of the FOX TV show, Deadline reports.
Based on the movie franchise, the action series follows the partnership between LAPD Detective Roger Murtaugh (Damon Wayans) and Wesley Cole (Seann William Scott), a former CIA operative who’s been everywhere and seen everything. The cast also includes Kevin Rahm, Johnathan Fernandez, Michelle Mitchenor, Keesha Sharp, Dante Brown, and Chandler Kinney.
As reported earlier, Wayans announced he was leaving Lethal Weapon after season three. However, that may not be the plan anymore. During this year’s winter TCA press conference, series creator Matt Miller said Wayans did have a farewell speech when season three wrapped:
He gave a big sendoff speech for the crew and thanked everybody. He bought everyone extremely expensive end-of-season jackets; he was really nice and lovely, and it ended up being a wonderful moment. He is in Hawaii right now, catching his breath.”
But Miller says the crew is hopeful Wayans will return if FOX renews Lethal Weapon for season four:
We are all in a very good headspace; I think it’s going to be a conversation, a negotiation, but I’m very hopeful that he will return.”
What do you think? Do you watch Lethal Weapon? Do you want a fourth season?
Yesssss!! I love the show. All of the actors and actresses are great! I am hopeful there will be a 4th season and more after.
PLEASE, PLEASE BRING BACK THIS SHOW! We LOVE it and all the cast!
Love the show, and season 3 is the best one yet! Bring it back, and I hope Wayans returns!
It is one of my favorite shows. I look forward to watching it every week. I hope the show continues and that Damon Wayans continues to be in it.
i love the show and i hope it returns. i also hope that damon wayans returns.
Pleeeeeze keep Lethal Weapon alive for many more seasons. This show is so well written and acted – it will be a continued hit regardless of whether Damon Wayans returns or not. Of course it will be more incredible WITH him, but the other characters have staying power of their own!! Come on, FOX!
I will continue to watch “Lethal Weapon” regardless if Damon Wayans stays or not. Please renew for many more seasons.
I think the cast is perfect as it is right now. I look forward to every show and tape them in case I might miss them.
Lethal Weapon is one of the best shows on television. Please bring back for more seasons!
I think the cast is very well picked as it is now. Hope every one stays. If not, I will still watch. Please renew the show regardless.
I love Leathal Weapon! And yes I want a Season 4…and a 5, 6, 7, 8 etc!!
Yes! I enjoy this show very much! It is one that both my husband and I enjoy! Bring on Season 4!!
I love Lethal Weapon. My favorite show. It is fun. Please bring it back.
I think you should just bring back Riggs.
I agree!! Haven’t watched since they killed Riggs!! Wayans wanted out from the beginning and is responsible for the firing of Clayne. He should leave and cancel the show. Not LW without Riggs and Wayans nothing but a jealous diva!!
Lethal Weapon is my favorite show. It is well written, well acted and very entertaining without being dark. Please bring it back for Season 4 and bring Murtaugh back with it.
