One of the Wednesday series protagonists could be removed from the cast due to a shocking crime this actor has been accused of recently. He played a key role in most episodes during the first season of the show, so this situation has raised concerns both on the actor’s fans and Netflix itself.
The star worked alongside fellow actors Jenna Ortega, Emma Myers, Christina Ricci, and Hunter Doohan, among many more for the very first season of the series. At that moment, Wednesday became a massive success and got the approval of fans and critics alike. However, according to different sources, the actor is not going to be taking his previous role for a future season, as he was removed from the cast.
We are talking about Percy Hynes White, who played Xavier Thorpe on Netflix’s Wednesday. Reportedly, he will not join the series for the second season of the show. According to the Daily Mail, he could be dismissed from the series after the sexual assault accusations against him were revealed earlier this year.
During the first season of Wednesday, Percy Hynes White’s character engaged in a love triangle with Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) and Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan). After the sexual assault allegations, it has been rumored that he will not be returning to the hit series.
It appears to be that Percy Hynes White was implied in a sexual assault case, as one woman affirmed he put her under the influence of alcohol to engage in sexual activities with her at a party in Toronto in January 2023.
In response, insiders stated he would not commit such action and claimed it was all “Internet defamations.” At the moment, neither the actor nor his management have referred to the sexual assault accusations.
