In the article, it says a new leader will be introduced: McMahon’s final episode is scheduled to shoot next week and is set to air on Tuesday, March 8. The episode is expected to introduce a new team leader to fill the void left by LaCroix’s departure. For some reason, this didn't shock me. A procedural is nice for $$$$ and syndication [though that is much harder to come by these days!], but Julian McMahon seemed to make his name with edgier fare.

AnnA January 23, 2022 Share January 23, 2022 I was surprised to read the news about Julian McMahon tonight. It's odd for a lead to leave a show mid-season. It has to be a nice paycheck. They'll have to replace him quickly if he's leaving after next week's filming.

But if the Law & Order franchise and NCIS franchise can survive cast changes, the FBI franchise should be fine. I agree. Having watched Nip/Tuck it actually took me a minute to get used to him in this role. He is a good actor, he pulled it off, but I don't see a problem replacing him, essentially. The fact that he hasn't had the role that long actually helps. Honestly, I was getting a bit tired of all the personal life stuff in both this and the original FBI and I completely stopped watching Law and Order SVU because of the heavy concentration on their personal lives. There was very little of that In L & O. Sure, Lenny might mention ex wives but, thankfully, we didn't have to meet them. It has to also makes transitions like this easier.

I think there is something else going on behind the scenes that's making these actors leave so abruptly. Granted, it's been difficult filming during COVID and has put a strain on actors lives but for so many to quit seems unusual...especially for the lead character to leave in the middle of the season. It will be interesting to see who they get to replace Julian McMahon. Dick Wolf likes to recycle actors from previous Law and Order franchises.
