Clayne Crawford’s movies and shows

His first appearance in a TV series took place in 1997 when he took a minor role in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” From that point on, he kept getting parts in different projects, including “CSI,” “Roswell,” and “Jericho.”

Although Clayne Crawford’s participations in those series were remarkable, the project that put him on the map was “Rectify,” the first Sundance TV original series.

The show addressed the life of a man who was released from prison after being on death row for almost two decades due to a wrongful conviction. Clayne portrayed Teddy Talbot Jr, the protagonist’s stepbrother.

Due to his outstanding work, the actor was nominated to a TV Critics’ Choice Awards for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. From that point on, his career did nothing but improve.

Sunshine Kiki Brown’s husband fired from “Lethal Weapon”

In 2016, he was cast as Martin Riggs on “Lethal Weapon,” the TV show based on the film series of the same name. Although Clayne was one of the main characters, he was fired after the second season.

The reason for such a drastic decision was the unhealthy relationship between him and his co-star Damon Wayans. Seann William Scott eventually replaced Clayne, but the show was canceled after three seasons.

Even after leaving “Lethal Weapon” is such a dramatic way, he has landed a couple of acting gigs, including a brief participation in the TV show “Into the Dark” and in the film “The Killing of Two Lovers,” which is currently in post-production.

Clayne was not the only actor who left “Lethal Weapon” before it ended, though. Damon Wayans did it in the middle of its final season, and he shared details on his decision shortly after that.

First, he remarked that he was a 58-year-old diabetic man working 16 hours a day. He went on to say that the show put a strain on his personal life, revealing that he was not present for his mother and daughter’s surgeries due to work.

The actor and comedian claimed that being a loving and supporting father while working on “Lethal Weapon” was hard, noting that work was not everything.
