This may be a bad news for some but Mekhi Phifer is out of the cast of Lie to Me when the show returns this November
Producer David Graziano tells Entertainment Weekly that The Lightman Group will be “going rogue” a little bit this fall, breaking away from the FBI and, therefore, Phifer’s agent.
“Lightman is going to act slightly in the more old-school PI model of a TV protagonist, [so] we’re doing away with the FBI contract [and] Mekhi is unfortunately no longer going to be on the show,” the producer said.
He added:
“The FBI franchise limited our storytelling a little bit because it had to adhere to the FBI structures of ‘Would the FBI take this case or not? The character that’s going to be our badge this season is a bent cop, Wolowsky [The Unusuals’ Monique Gabriela Curnen], who goes about business in a similar way to Lightman. There’s a mutual respect from the get-go. We’re working hard to make The Lightman Group a dysfunctional family.”
