Sterling K. Brown turned down a season-long villain arc on the popular comic book series.
He was heartbroken about saying no to showrunner Eric Kripke’s offer (the two had previously worked together on Supernatural).
“I think it was a bad guy [role], because it was very tempting. But a full-season arc, they are in Toronto — it’s tough. Listen, these are champagne problems I’m talking about here! But because I’m blessed enough to already have certain things in place, I get a chance to be a bit more choosy [about what projects I do].”
Brown did not reveal any more details on which role he was offered.
