AceShowbiz - Damon Wayans surprised everyone when he announced his plan to exit "Lethal Weapon" after season 3. Not only fans, but cast and crew are reportedly freaking out because of that as their fates are put in limbo should Wayans leave the FOX series.

According to HollywoodLife.com, the show's cast and crew are "shocked, sad, mad and pissed at Damon's announcement." The source claims that it's "because it might have a drastic effect on their jobs as well."

"With his potential exit, no one has any clue if they will replace him or if the show will get cancelled," the source added. "Lots of the people from the crew need this job and they are all freaking out that they might have to start looking for new employment soon, which is never a fun experience."

"Everyone works so hard to make the show work, so to have one of the main actors call it quits -- especially out of nowhere and after the drama with Clayne Crawford -- is really upsetting," continues the insider. For those who need a refresher, Crawford was accused of having a toxic attitude on set which led him to be fired from the show.

It's said that Wayans has signed for six seasons, but now that he said that he was "too old" to continue the show, "there is a lot of uneasiness and unknown right that many hope to get corrected soon." The source went on saying, "But one thing is for sure there is going to be a lot of weird days ahead on set since no one has any clue what is next. Its a dilemma that many are having a hard time with."

"I'm going to be quitting the show in December after we finish the initial 13," Wayans previously revealed to website Eurweb.com. "So I really don't know what they're planning, but that's what I'm planning."

"I'm a 58-year-old diabetic and I'm working 16-hour days," the Roger Murtaugh depicter added. When asked if he's over it, Wayans replied, "I'm done. Like Murtaugh said, I'm too old for this." The interviewer seemed to be thinking he's joking, but Wayans assured the interviewer that he's not joking about exiting the show.
