Joshua Jackson is moving from streaming show to another.
The beloved actor, who most recently starred on Little Fires Everywhere, has landed the lead role in the upcoming Peacock drama series, Dr. Death.
He replaces Jamie Dornan, who was initially set to topline the series.
As is becoming the norm due to Covid-19 actors are having to pull out of projects due to scheduling conflicts, so Dornan's exit is hardly surprising.
Filming was initially set to get underway earlier this year, but because of the shutdowns brought on by the virus, it will now shoot later in the fall.
Additionally, TV Line is reporting that This Is Us star Chris Sullivan, who was set to co-star on the series, has been forced to drop out.
Sullivan's exit is likely due to him filming the series between seasons of This Is Us, which only kicked off production on its fifth season a few weeks ago.
