This disappoints me. I haven't seen "Lethal Weapon", nor to I have any desire to - but he was so good on "Rectify" which is an excellent show (on Netflix streaming) that I'm sorry to hear he is such a dilhoe.
He was really good on it. I mean... he did play a big asshole but the character also had his charm and could be quite sexy.

He's bulging rather nicely in Lethal Weapon. I suspect it's the balls. Am I right?
Must say the news of him being a cunt came out of nowhere, and it's certanly disappointing to hear it. I've liked him in Lethal Weapon quite a lot. He's a good enough actor to be able to play a half-lunatic yet likable character like Riggs with ease.

R42 Aside from the fact that it's the first glimpse at the script, there's a few benefits.
The director gets to see if an actor is taking a different approach to a scene than was/is intended. Often (but not always) a writer will be there too, and same - gives an idea of what notes to give cast and crew.
Combining that kind of familiarization with a script with a first true rehearsal, a tech rehearsal or blocking would be a fucking nightmare. Might be doable on a soap with static sets but in an action adventure series the level of difficulty would def be higher.

Damon Wayans and Clayne Crawford have hated each other since the end of last season. Damon has top billing, but Clayne feels like he's the breakout star. The two of them not wanting to work together anymore has threatened the cancellation before these recent headlines about Crawford being a douche.
Now with Damon referring to the women accusing Bill Cosby as "unrapeable" - there's even more reason to kill this piece of shit, aggro-series.

In a recent Deadline or The Hollywood Reporter article Wayans was described as a diva who refused to any rehearsals before the cameras rolled.
I've liked the show although I haven't watched it that much this season. Crawford was actually practically perfect in his role. Not as hot as young Gibson (who is?) but he's extremely charming.

I have no doubt Clayne was a handful, but you can lay this squarely on Wayans, and that's probably why they can't find a suitable replacement, since the show requires the lead (that's not you, Damon) to be charismatic and a decent actor, and what charismatic and decent actor wants to be Darren #2 with a costar cunt who got his predecessor fired?
