Robert Sheehan Leaves Misfits

[Iceman]

Robert Sheehan will not be returning for the third series of Misfits.

The show's executive producer Petra Fried announced the news at the Kapow convention in London today.

Sheehan's character Nathan, who has appeared in the show since it began in 2009, will now be replaced by a new character called Rudi.

Casting for Rudi is still ongoing. Nathan's departure and Rudi's arrival are expected to be dealt with in short films posted on the E4 website before the third series begins.

Sheehan can currently be seen in the movie Killing Bono and also worked on the film Season Of The Witch, which was released earlier this year.

The third series of Misfits is scheduled to air later this year on E4.

Ah, it's been rumoured for a while but I'm sad to see it's true. He was one of the best things about Misfits.

[Iceman]

Yeah he was the funniest thing about the show. I reckon he's gonna be huge anyway.

It'll be interesting to see how the show adapts, replacing the bigger characters in shows like this is always risky.

oh dear :( guess that's Misfits dead then.

I didn't watch the show but I suppose you can't blame him for wanting to move up and get into films more

I've kidnapped him.. He's my new toyboy and I have forced him to quit! I am all he needs now :)
