Still 'Standing': "Last Man
Standing" may have been saved
from an early demise, but two of
its stars have decided not to stick
with it. The ABC sitcom was can-
celed back in May 2017 after six
seasons despite its steady ratings,
but it didn't take long for the fan
outcry to convince Fox to snap up
the series and add it to its come-
dy slate.
Series star Tim Allen, who
starred in the huge 1990s comedy
hit "Home Improvement," will be
back headlining the cast when
"Last Man Standing" premieres in
its new home on Fox this fall, but a
few of his colleagues have decided
not to make the move. Both Molly
Ephraim ("Paranormal Activity 2,"
2010) and Flynn Morrison ("Pretty
Little Liars") have bowed out in the
year since the series' cancellations,
and their roles are being recast.
Ephraim played Mike Baxter's (Al-
len) middle daughter, Mandy, and
Morrison his grandson, Boyd.
The rest of the core cast is on
board with the revival. "Last Man
Standing" focuses on the life of
Mike, a conservative outdoors-
man and the senior executive of a
sporting goods store with a wife
and three daughters. Nancy Travis
("So I Married an Axe Murderer,"
1993) stars as Mike's wife, Nancy,
and Amanda Fuller ("Grey's Anat-
omy") and Kaitlyn Dever ("De-
troit," 2017) star as his other two
daughters, Kristin and Eve, re-
spectively. Christoph Sanders
("Ghost Whisperer"), Hector Eli-
zondo ("Pretty Woman," 1990)
and Jordan Masterson ("Greek")
also star.
