Didn’t hear the rumor…but if they did, so be it. As long as they replace him with another quality lead…which would be hard to do.
I’ve never been against a movie/series taking big risks like that (To Live And Die In L.A. comes to mind), but you have to shore the production up with another strong lead (stronger, actually) or you will lose your audience in a heartbeat.
