Former Lethal Weapon actor Clayne Crawford gets candid about the firing and defends his 'intimidating behavior' on set

Crawford was featured on the podcast Drinkin' Bros where he confessed that he never thought he would be fired from the show

Actor Clayne Crawford has finally spoken out about his firing from the TV series 'Lethal Weapon'. The actor, who played the co-lead character of Martin Riggs, was fired from the show after his alleged intimidating behavior on set and was unofficially replaced by actor Sean William Scott. There was also an audio track leaked earlier that revealed the confrontation between Crawford and co-star Damon Wayans, who played the character of Murtagh.

Crawford was featured on the podcast 'Drinkin' Bros' where he confessed that he never thought he would be fired from the show. He said: "It's a little different when you replace Becky or the mom off of 'Fresh Prince'. If they'd replaced the Fresh Prince, we'd have been like, 'What the f**k are we watching anyway?'. That's why I just didn't think it was possible. I didn't think they were going to get rid of me, I guess. And if they did, I thought they'd give me a buzz."
