Castle star Stana Katic opened up about her abrupt and untimely departure from the series and the subsequent uproar it caused, before the show was ultimately canceled.
The choice didn’t make much sense then and apparently it’s still something of a mystery to Katic.
Now that some time has passed and Katic is busy promoting her next series, the Amazon original crime drama Absentia, she’s had the chance to process those strange events.
ABC had, at the time, reportedly been looking at doing a shorter season, one that apparently didn’t include Katic as NYPD detective Kate Beckett — arguably the second most important character on the series.
