'Lethal Weapon': First look of Seann William Scott's character reveals him to be as lethal as his predecessor

Seann William Scott replaced Clayne Crawford as Damon Wayans' partner after allegations against the actor over inappropriate behavior on set.
PUBLISHED AUG 24, 2018

After replacing Clayne Crawford, who played the character of Martin Riggs in 'Lethal Weapon', with Seann William Scotts's Detective William Cole, Fox has released the first look of the 'American Pie' actor in his new role, appearing pretty lethal himself.

Standing alongside his partner Roger Murtaugh (played by Damon Wayans), Scott's Cole can be seen sharing a beer with his partner at the back of a boat. 

In the new promo, quite aptly title 'New Partner', Murtaugh tells Cole, "I take this partnership thing very seriously." Although it hasn't been revealed how his former partner died, Murtaugh will probably come to terms with the fact that he needs to move on with his new partner. Cole, on the other hand, appears to be a death-dealing character, just as fatal as his predecessor. However, since it is Scott, the character will surely have its own share of humorous affairs to offer, as the third season takes the struggle forward.
