First Alison and now Cole.
Another series regular will exit the Showtime drama.
Joshua Jackson is saying goodbye to The Affair. The 40-year-old actor has been on the show since its beginning, starring as Cole Lockhart. Now TVLine confirms that the actor will not return for the series’ fifth and final Season. The 40-year-old actor was initially contracted for two Season and kept on signing.
The news of Jackson’s exit from the show follows news of Ruth Wilson’s exit after her character was killed off in the Season 4 finale. Wilson confirmed her exit in August saying she “did want to leave, but I’m not allowed to talk about why.”
The show’s final season is still in development, and the creative teams is still figuring out how all the characters’ stories will end. According to the outlet, Jackson might make a couple of guest appearances in the series’ final season.
