+ | ===== Why Todd Left ‘Axanar’ ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Todd left Axanar in September 2015, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Eventually, Axanar fan Michael Perles asked Peters: " | ||
+ | |||

+ | ==== ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | In an interview on the Mortis podcast, Todd explained he was initially not interested in the role, and only took it after being convinced by //Prelude to Axanar// director [[other attorneys|Christian Gossett]], who also eventually left the project: | ||
+ | |||
+ | > It’s a very delicate situation because when they approached me about [//Prelude to Axanar//], I didn’t want to do it. I don’t believe in creating content and not sharing in the residual opportunity, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Asked about his departure from the project, Todd criticized Axanar' | ||

+ | ===== Role on the New Series ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the MORTIS interview, Todd also revealed he is on the casting "short list" for [[cbs#new series|CBS' | ||
+ | |||
+ | > It’s a year away. They’re not even going to get official cast until, probably, the fourth quarter of the year. And my only concern about it is that it’s going to be that online thing [CBS All Access]; I don’t understand that part. I’ve never done a series regular — I’ve always avoided it because I like playing different characters — but this is one year that we’re looking at some stuff, so I’m sure that we’re going to be popping up and everybody’s going to move on something real soon.(([[http:// | ||
