With the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes effectively underway, it is stunning that casting information is trickling out for broadcast TV dramas.
Unfortunately, the information we’re about to share won’t come as excellent news for followers of FBI: Most Wanted.
Per Deadline, Alexa Davalos is not a part of the CBS procedural’s expansive solid.
Per the outlet, the actress was “informed by a producer on set that she won’t be coming back after filming her last scene from Season 4 several months ago.”
The determination means there will probably be no on-screen farewell for Kristin Gaines.
As a consequence, FBI: Most Wanted Season 5 Episode 1 will seemingly clarify Kristin’s departure.
Unfortunately, on the finish of FBI: Most Wanted Season 4, there was no indication that Kristin was plotting her departure from the group.
It’s unhappy for the followers who had been invested in her arc as a result of it means the decision in all probability will not land in addition to it ought to.
Still, Deadline notes that Davalos’ departure is “amicable,” which may point out the actress will return down the road.
Procedurals, particularly these crafted by Dick Wolf, are inclined to convey again former solid members for visitor stints.
Sometimes, former stars can return in a extra everlasting capability, however it can all come down as to if Davalos is excited by an encore and what different tasks she has within the works.
The Man within the High Castle alum joined the sequence throughout FBI: Most Wanted Season 3 and turned in a wonderful portrayal of Kristin.
The FBI spinoff sequence has had its justifiable share of casting adjustments in its comparatively quick life.
Julian McMahan, Kellan Lutz, and Miguel Gomez departed throughout the third season, altering the present’s trajectory ceaselessly.
Dylan McDermott joined the solid to assist fill the void left by McMahon, whereas Edwin Hodge was added to the solid final season.
We have a protracted wait earlier than contemporary episodes of the Tuesday drama air.
Initially, the sequence was on CBS’ fall schedule, however the strike has discovered the community delaying its returning scripted exhibits.
There’s no telling when any present exhibits will probably be again on the air.
We hope for a decision that finds the writers and actors getting a good deal to return to doing what they do finest: Delivering first-rate TV.
