Lethal Weapon is one of the most iconic cop shows on television. Lethal Weapon is the reboot of the 80s action movie series that starred Mel Gibson in his role and Danny Glover as his partner. The Lethal Weapon series became a fan-favourite right after the premiere episode.
However, the show has been surrounded by drama since its inception. Fans are now starting to wonder what will become of the show and whether Lethal Weapon season 4 happen or not.
Lethal Weapon : What happened so far?
Debuting in 2016, Lethal Weapon stars Clayne Crawford as Martin Riggs and Marlon Wayans as Roger Murtaugh. While Murtaugh is the older weary partner, Riggs is the loose cannon cop. These two battle shady characters and the series blends perfectly with drama and comedy. After the two popular initial seasons, fans had no reason to suspect that something weird was happening behind the scenes.
In 2018, Clayne Clawford was fired from Lethal Weapon after reports of his belligerent behaviour surfaced on the sets of the series. Many reports also claim that this firing is the result of a long-lasting feud between Wayans and Crawford.

After the firing of Clayne Crawford in 2018, there was a search of a replacement. The third season premiered in September 2018 and had decent ratings, although it could never match the level of the first season.

However, lead actor Damon Wayans revealed that he’s also considering leaving the role. During an interview, Wayans revealed after 13 episodes set for Lethal Weapon Season 3. Wayans would be leaving the show to focus on his health and spend time with family.
Recent reports also suggest that FOX heads are scrambling to work out an arrangement that would allow Wayans to stay.
