The clock could be ticking on Fox’s Lethal Weapon series, which stars Clayne Crawford as the Mel Gibson to Damon Wayans’s Danny Glover. The series is currently in its second season and boasting strong ratings, but that could all come to a close with news of Crawford’s abusive on-set attitude. Lethal Weapon is guaranteed a Season 3 renewal based on its high ratings, with its Season 2 finale set to air on May 18. Borrowing perhaps a little too many lines from Gibson’s page, Crawford has often played a man with a temper, as previously seen in Sundance’s Rectify. In a 2016 profile for GQ, upon being cast in Lethal Weapon, he described having “a massive breakdown” once a week under the pressure of filling Gibson’s shoes.
