"Chris Noth will no longer film additional episodes of The Equalizer, effective immediately," CBS and Universal Television wrote in a short statement.   

Noth, 67, will be seen in one more original episode filmed before the allegations against the actor surfaced. Also starring Adam Goldberg, Liza Lapira, and Lorraine Toussaint, the crime drama, a sequel of the original film of 2014, premiered on CBS on February 7, 2021. Noth's character, Bishop, is a quirky ex-CIA director who is also a friend to Queen's character Robyn.

Noth, also known for his roles in Law & Order, The Good Wife, and Monsters, played the character Mr. Big, the main love interest for Sarah Jessica Parker's protagonist in the popular series. Noth was also dropped by his talent agency, and the Fitness brand Peloton removed an advert that featured the actor. Chris, however, claims the allegations to be false. "These stories could've been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago - no always means no - that is a line I did not cross. The encounters were consensual," Noth wrote.
