Mison also confirmed that they are now looking for a replacement for Abbie in the show who shall play the role of the new witness. The actor said that it would be a difficult job to find a replacement for Abbie and the good thing is that the producers and showrunners have sufficient time to do it.
The actor also said that the killing off of Abbie Mills in “Sleepy Hollow” is not an issue of color. Some viewers actually felt offended by the exit of Nicole Beharie because they think the producers and showrunners agree to it because the actress is a woman of color.
The same fans have been saying that people of color seem to frequently do the dying in most TV series that a number of fans of “Sleepy Hollow” have threatened to boycott the show for its upcoming Season 4.
Mison believes that the death of Abbie Mills was a personal decision made by Nicole Beharie so it is nobody’s fault that her character has to be killed off in the TV series.
He added that when the show has a woman of color in the lead role, it is not just a woman of color in the lead because it means so much more across the whole of America. He added that it symbolizes much more so when the negative repercussions happen, he understood completely the fan reactions.
When is Season 4 starting?
