Evolution’ Star Addresses Whether Voit Could Return After That Shocking Season 19 Finale
Editor’s note: The following contains major spoilers for Criminal Minds: Evolution
Summary
In his time on Criminal Minds: Evolution, Elias Voit (Zach Gilford) has evolved from a serial killer to the leader of a network of killers, to a broken man no longer considered a psychopath. Rather than just rotting away in the dark corner of a prison, Voit would rather use his newfound conscience to help the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), but how can you atone for your past when you don’t even know where to begin?
At the same time, the BAU is investigating a string of new cases that ultimately wind their way back to Voit. The attention focused on the Sicarius killer and a podcast dedicated to his misdeeds brings The Fan out of the shadows in an attempt to prove he is worthy of the God status he has labeled himself with. The two men eventually clash face-to-face and Voit is left to wonder whether his daughter might become more like him.
After watching the Season 19 finale, Collider got the opportunity to chat with Gilford about playing Elias Voit and whether he could still turn up on the series again in the future. During the 1-on-1 interview, he discussed what it was like to find the dynamic between Voit and James Crowley, aka The Fan, his experience directing Justin Kirk in their scenes together, Voit’s tunnel vision when it comes to saving his daughter, the fun of playing off of an imaginary David Rossi (Joe Mantegna), whether Voit really meant his apology to Penelope (Kirsten Vangsness), shooting the physical stunts in the finale, Voit’s concern that his daughter might take after her father, his favorite scene this season, and whether he might show up on the series again in the future.
Zach Gilford Enjoyed Finding the Voit and Crowley Dynamic With Justin Kirk in ‘Criminal Minds: Evolution’ Season 19
“I loved working with him. I couldn’t believe I got to direct him.”
COLLIDER: This season, we’ve seen Voit have trouble finding his footing with The Fan. For those moments when you guys were together, did you and Justin Kirk discuss how that dynamic would work, or did you just want to find it in the moment?
ZACH GILFORD: He was creepy. In real life, he’s the nicest, most normal guy. No, we didn’t discuss it much. The episode I directed was his introduction, when he basically came in. I’ve known him, as an actor, since I was a kid. I’ve been a fan of his. And then, when we did the table read, I was like, “Oh, my God, this guy has so much going on.” I’m very much like, “Let’s just show up on set and see what we find,” as opposed to beating it to death. We’re not making a play, so I want it to be alive. He knew his shit and he had a take on it. Selfishly, as an actor, I can do better if I don’t know what you’re going to do and I have to react to it. I definitely learned that doing Friday Night Lights because we did a lot of improv and stuff. You couldn’t just memorize your lines and know exactly how you wanted to say them because you didn’t know what the other people were going to say.
I like not to rehearse, but I tried that when I was directing on the show and people imploded. I was like, “Okay, nevermind. Let’s just rehearse it.” You get so much organic stuff when you don’t know what the other person is going to do. So, no, we didn’t talk about it a lot, especially because of the dynamic between these two people. I’ve never met him before. I don’t know who he is. So, I thought it was good to just come out and be like, “I have no idea what I’m walking into.” I loved working with him. I couldn’t believe I got to direct him. Directing him really just meant that I was like, “You sit at the table here and act however you want to act because it’s great.” There wasn’t a lot of discussion before it. He knew what he wanted to do, and I think he was spot on.
Voit makes the decision to escape in the finale. When he does that, do you think he cares at all about whether he lives or dies, or do you think he’s really just solely focused on what he believes he has to do and doesn’t think beyond that?
GILFORD: I think he’s just so tunnel vision with saving his daughter. I don’t think he really thinks about anything else. He’s said, over the course of the last couple of seasons, “Kill me. I don’t want to live anymore. This is terrible, living with this conscience.” I think he doesn’t really care if he dies, but I don’t think he’s thinking about that. I think he’s just so focused on, “I have to take care of my family. Whatever happens, happens. The repercussions will be what they will be. But this is what has to happen now.”
What has it been like for you to have imaginary Rossi there, especially for this season? Does that help gauge where Voit is at mentally when you have those conversations together, otherwise they would just be very quiet scenes?
GILFORD: Yeah, that’s a good point. It’s great. I know Joe [Mantegna] had a lot of fun doing that because he finally got to mess with me. Over the course of the season, different directors would push him in different directions for how much to play with it. It is a fun thing when you’re a voice in someone’s head. You’re not that person. You’re their manifestation of you. He is my antagonist, and he’s also my sounding board. It’s cool that we have been in each other’s heads because we’re the only people who rival each other intellectually. When you’re gaming things out in your head or strategizing, you need someone who’s as smart as you. It’s fun that these two characters, with me in jail and him out in the world, still find a way to have him be the only person who can challenge me enough to get to the conclusion I need to get to.
How do you feel about Voit apologizing to Penelope? How do you think he feels about her actually having gone to bat for him? Do you think he regrets any blowback she might get from all of that?
GILFORD: I think he means it. In Season 3, he is a new person or is tapped into the good part of himself. This whole season is him reckoning with not just what he’s done, but what he can do to make it better. Season 3 is coming to terms with, “I’ve hurt all these people. I’ve hurt all these families. And not only that, but now there’s the ripple effect of people worshiping me and wanting to replicate me. It’s even worse than I thought it was.” That’s another level of realization for him when it comes to how much damage he’s caused the world.
‘Criminal Minds: Evolution’ Star Zach Gilford Got Heavily Involved With the Physical Stunts in the Season 19 Finale
“There was a lot of rehearsal.”
Once Voit shows up and wants Crowley to bring him to his daughter, there’s a lot of fighting and physical work going on. What was that like to shoot? Did you have enough time to shoot all of that?
GILFORD: Yeah, we had enough time. This is where, to be honest, having had the chance to direct on the show actually helped a lot. They had us go for a stunt rehearsal, just to figure that out. And because of the way TV works, you’re always shooting. It’s so fast. Glenn [Kershaw], who was directing that episode, was directing scenes somewhere else and we were just there with the stunt people. They were like, “Here’s the fight.” And I was like, “Okay. Where’s the camera?” I kind of took over a little bit. I went back to set and they were like, “You should see our text chain from the PAs and ADs.” And I was like, “What?” Someone was like, “How’s it going in stunt rehearsal?” They were like, “It’s kind of chaos. Oh, it’s good now. Zach took over and is directing the scene.” I think that’s just because I knew, “Okay, I could just learn this fight, but we have to consider where the cameras are.”
Stunt people are great, but their job is to make it safe and make it look good. And that may be all well and good, but we can’t shoot that. So, there was a lot of rehearsal. Justin was so funny. He was like, “Whatever you want me to do, I’m here. Just tell me, and I’ll do it. I am a puppet. I will do my acting.” And I am such a control freak. I’m like, “No, the camera is going to be over there, and we need to figure this out.” It definitely was a big rehearsal, but it was fun and we figured it out. And then, when we finally shot it, it went pretty smoothly.
Voit tells his daughter that he loves her before he’s taken away. Do you think he would have wanted to sit down and have a conversation with her if he could have, or do you think it was better that he didn’t have that opportunity?
GILFORD: I think it’s better that he didn’t, honestly. I’m a father. My kids are young, but there are things where I’m like, “Man, I hope I never have to have that conversation with them” I hope they just know I love them and I did my best. With everything that he’s done, there’s no explanation. He can’t explain it away. And she knows what he’s done. I think what’s most important to him is just that she knows that he loves her, and he would do anything for her. In spite of everything bad he’s done, he would do anything for her and he needs her to know that.
’Criminal Minds: Evolution’s Voit Is Worried His Daughter Could Become a Monster Like Him
“If he just spawned another monster, it’s the worst thing that could have happened.”
There’s an interesting moment when she says she’s not sure how she feels about what happened and that she doesn’t want her mother to know what she did. She says that she’ll be fine, but there’s a small smile on her face. Do you think Voit is concerned about what his daughter did and what that could turn her into in the future?
GILFORD: Yeah. I think something that’s been lingering in the back of his head for years is, “I hope this isn’t something I pass onto my children.” Seeing her do things, even though when she kills The Fan, it’s in self-defense, there is this moment of, “Was she only able to do that because she has this thing that I gave her, or would anyone have done that?” He sees himself as a monster, and he always saw his children as his salvation. Not as his way to right wrongs, but to be different. And if he just spawned another monster, it’s the worst thing that could have happened.
Did you have a favorite scene or moment this season?
GILFORD: It was definitely the scene with Justin when we were at the table talking because it was like a play. It’s just two people talking and mentally sparring, and he brought so much to it. We basically got that scene in three takes. That was really fun. It was a seven-page scene or something, so you got to get lost in it and just be there. That was really fun. Besides that, I just loved any time Allison [Nordahl] was on set because I’ve seen her grow up over four years. She went from being 13 to 17, or whatever ages she was. She’s grown up so much and she’s going off to college. It was fun to have her around and just talk to her and see how different of a person she is.
Have Viewers Seen the Last of Elias Voit on ‘Criminal Minds: Evolution’?
“I do know I’m not coming back in Season 20.”
Have we seen the last of Voit? Will he really not darken the door of the B.A.U. ever again, or might we see him if his daughter decides she likes killing?
GILFORD: I don’t know. Obviously, they didn’t kill me. I do know I’m not coming back in Season 20. But you never know. I hope to be back. I hope the end of his story isn’t just that he’s in a cell somewhere and gone. You never know. But as of now, no one’s talked to me about it. I think they very purposefully did not kill me so that, at some point, if need be, if it makes sense for story, I could show back up.
Criminal Minds: Evolution is available to stream on Paramount+.

Rosie O’Donnell is opening up about the internal conflict she faced before undergoing a reported $90,000 facelift following her dramatic weight loss. The 64-year-old comedian revealed that she initially questioned whether cosmetic surgery aligned with her feminist beliefs. However, Rosie O’Donnell ultimately concluded that feminism also meant having the freedom to make decisions about her own appearance.
O’Donnell reportedly underwent a deep plane facelift in January after losing 60 pounds while taking Mounjaro. While promoting her one-woman stage show, “Common Knowledge,” the former talk show host admitted that she initially viewed facelifts as a response to societal expectations placed on women. “I had to wrestle with myself because as a feminist I always felt [facelifts were a response to] the male gaze and not anything I believe in,” O’Donnell told PEOPLE.
According to the comedian, her 13-year-old nonbinary child, Clay, also questioned what the procedure might communicate to those who view her as a role model. “Mommy, girls look up to you. What does your legacy stand for if you do this?” Clay reportedly asked.
O’Donnell eventually decided that undergoing the procedure did not contradict her values. Instead, she described bodily autonomy as central to feminism, explaining, “The real power of feminism [is] to decide what we want to do with our bodies and when.”
O’Donnell’s decision marked a significant departure from comments she made several years earlier about aging in Hollywood. During a 2021 interview with Vulture, the “And Just Like That” actress said she intentionally planned to avoid plastic surgery because she believed her natural appearance would help her secure more character-driven roles later in life.
“I always knew as an actress that when I got into my 60s I would be playing the [Geraldine Page] roles,” she explained at the time. “I wasn’t going to have plastic surgery. I was going to look the way a woman my age should look, and I always thought that would be a blessing in my older age. I would get to play the [Colleen Dewhurst] roles. That has turned out to be true. I’m getting all this acting work now that I’m closing in on 60.”
Five years later, O’Donnell appears to have reconsidered that position after her substantial weight loss changed the appearance of her face.
Her Weight Loss Influenced The Cosmetic Procedure
O’Donnell reportedly became frustrated when people repeatedly told her that she appeared unhappy, even when she felt content.
The facial sagging she experienced after losing 60 pounds contributed to her decision to seek cosmetic work. The procedure reportedly restored volume, reduced visible sagging around her face and jawline, and gave the actress an added confidence boost.
Although her reasoning has attracted scrutiny, O’Donnell did not attempt to hide the surgery or credit her altered appearance to skincare, dieting, or other less invasive measures.
Rosie O’Donnell’s Facelift Explanation Draws Criticism
A Daily Mail columnist criticized O’Donnell for presenting the procedure as a feminist decision, arguing that the comedian could have simply admitted she wanted to change her appearance after losing weight. The commentary also contrasted O’Donnell’s explanation with Ricki Lake’s approach to cosmetic surgery.
Lake publicly disclosed that she underwent a deep plane lower face and neck lift in 2024 after losing 40 pounds. The former talk show host recently marked the second anniversary of her surgery by sharing before-and-after images and publicly thanking her surgeon.
While both women acknowledged undergoing cosmetic work after substantial weight loss, the columnist argued that Lake discussed her decision without attaching a broader political or ideological message to it. O’Donnell, however, appears to view the choice through the lens of her long-held beliefs about women, aging, and autonomy.
Rosie O’Donnell’s Long-Running Feud With Donald Trump
O’Donnell’s facelift comments come as she continues navigating another highly public chapter of her life: her decades-long feud with President Donald Trump. The comedian moved to Ireland shortly after Trump’s second inauguration, a decision she has connected to the country’s political climate.
Despite relocating across the Atlantic, O’Donnell has continued speaking openly about the president and the effect she believes their longstanding conflict has on him. “I think I trigger him like a PTSD response of all his failures in his life as a kid,” she told Variety.

A trampoline park employee dressed up as Spider-Man for superhero day at work got out of his car (in full garb) to help a person struggling to cross the street.
A quarter of a century is a long time to dwell on the letters we got from Hogwarts telling us to head to the Hogwarts Express, but it’s that time again and the Wizarding World is preparing to cast its spell over cinemas. Having already confirmed that all eight Harry Potter films will return to theatres for a limited anniversary run, Warner Bros. Discovery is now showing off a special treat to fans at San Diego Comic-Con, who’ve been given a first look at some of the merchandise accompanying the celebration. Naturally, there’s a big red steam engine, scarves and broomsticks involved.
New images from SDCC, courtesy of Collider’s Steve Weintraub, reveal a collection of Harry Potter cinema merchandise created for the franchise’s 25th anniversary, including, as is the fasion these days, increasingly elaborate and almost demented popcorn containers inspired by the Hogwarts Express and the four Hogwarts houses.
The standout item is a large model of the Hogwarts Express choo-choo train, complete with its red-and-gold paintwork, wheels and “5972” numbering, and the display also includes an oversized Nimbus 2000 broomstick.
The New ‘Harry Potter’ Popcorn Buckets Are Ready for Hogwarts
Another bucket features artwork of Hogwarts beneath a moonlit sky and comes decorated with removable-looking crests representing Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin, the four Hogwarts houses which represent courage, heart, intellect and, erm, being villains. There’s also a separate drink container which has been styled after a Hogwarts uniform, complete with a red-and-gold Gryffindor scarf, striped tie and matching straw.
The merchandise arrives as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, released internationally as Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, celebrates the 25th anniversary of its theatrical debut. The film will return to cinemas with 12 minutes of behind-the-scenes material that has never previously been shown on the big screen.
All eight movies will screen worldwide from August 27 through September 3, with tickets scheduled to go on sale July 31. The anniversary celebrations will also include global fan events, theme-park activations and new glimpses at HBO’s upcoming Harry Potter television series.

Heroes From Across the Spider-Verse Unite in First Teaser for Marvel’s Biggest Crossover Yet [Exclusive]
The year of the Spider is about to get into full swing. After visiting the grittier, campier, more black-and-white world of Prime Video’s Spider-Noir with Nicolas Cage back in May, the main event is almost here with Spider-Man: Brand New Day arriving on July 31. Tom Holland‘s return five years after the emotional conclusion of No Way Home will be a darker one, following a Peter Parker that’s been living in the shadows ever since all memory of him was lost and whose powers are now going haywire while a new threat looms over New York. There’s a lot to look forward to in the blockbuster, from the web-slinger’s team-up with The Punisher, to a rampaging Hulk, returning fan-favorites, and a mysteriously cast Sadie Sink. To celebrate, the mobile title Marvel Contest of Champions is continuing its season-long “Summer of Spidey” with plenty of goodies related to the wall-crawler.
Kabam has been going all-out to expand the roster of its free-to-play fighting RPG for all manner of Spider-Man fans lately. The “Summer of Spidey” event has already seen the launch of Hobgoblin, with Black Tarantula announced to enter the fray as a new champion later this month. The recent “Web of Corruption” event also introduced an appropriately pulpy new motion comic for Spider-Noir. They each add to a lineup of characters now totaling over 330, with an especially diverse collection of heroes and villains with their own movesets and abilities from throughout not just Peter Parker’s world, but the entire Spider-Verse. Now, a new trailer for Contest of Champions highlights the many Spiders and related characters brought to life from the page to fight in this multiversal crossover of epic proportions.
The cinematic starts zoomed in on the original Spidey as he and his allies swing in to deal with an invasion of villains throughout the Battlerealm. Everyone is caught in the fray, from Iron Man, who is in a battle of power armor with J. Jonah Jameson in his Spider Slayer suit, to Nick Fury, who’s surrounded by an army of Mysterio clones. In the end, it’s the Spider-People who ultimately turn the tide of the fight. Silk webs up Rhino and lands a swift kick to Kraven the Hunter’s jaw, while Spider-Punk aids Doctor Strange by tripping up Doc Ock, Sandman, and more as they charge through portals in a sequence paying homage to No Way Home. Soaring above them is Spider-Gwen as she wraps up both Green and Red Goblin, and Spider-Man India even manages to evade both Venom and Carnage while the Spot complicates their fight with his dots. It’s one giant showcase of all things Spider-Man, culminating in one marvelous group photo of Peter surrounded by his rogue’s gallery, as confident as ever in his victory.
‘Marvel Contest of Champions’ Symbiote Squad Builder Event Is Still Underway
While these various Spider-Man characters can be deployed in 1v1 battles, the original storyline, or other content either with friends or solo as part of your squad, Marvel Contest of Champions is also still running the Symbiote Squad Builder event as part of the “Summer of Spidey.” Through August 5, players can attempt to assemble their strongest teams possible using only Symbiotes, Spider-Verse characters, and other friends and foes of the web-slinger, and earn rewards for completing matches with them. Squad sizes have also improved to make this the best iteration of the event to-date. It’s built to be accommodating to new players and veterans alike, letting everyone construct a squad of free champions, improve them through battles, and ultimately challenge a boss for rewards while racking up milestones.
Other additions to the game throughout the month have included a Daily Bugle Bundle giveaway, allowing new players to add 10 Spidey-themed champions to their collection immediately, and a new epilogue for endgame players to experience. There’s one more new event coming soon too, with Black Tarantula’s Secret Stash starting July 29 and running through August 12. This underworld-themed opportunity will have everyone chasing event milestones and Secret Stash Solo Objectives to earn pry bars and gain access to loads of rewards. In all, the Battlerealm looks to remain busy as summer slowly draws to an end.
Marvel Contest of Champions is continuing its Summer of Spidey event throughout the rest of the season. Check out the special trailer in the player above.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians returned to Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con with one of Disney’s biggest television presentations of the convention. As anticipation continues to build for Season 3, the cast and creative team took the stage to offer fans a closer look at the adaptation of The Titan’s Curse, the third novel in Rick Riordan‘s bestselling fantasy series. The upcoming season marks a major turning point for the Disney+ series, expanding the world beyond Camp Half-Blood further while introducing some of the franchise’s most beloved characters.
Following the success of the show’s first two seasons, fans have been eager for their first real look at what’s in store when Percy Jackson returns. Ahead of the panel, Disney teased exclusive footage, new character reveals, and a preview of the adventures awaiting the young demigods. That promise made the presentation one of the most anticipated television events of the weekend, with many hoping Hall H would finally deliver the first footage from the upcoming season. Disney ultimately did just that, offering attendees an extended preview that sets the stage for Percy’s next quest.
Disney Unveils the Opening Minutes of ‘Percy Jackson’ Season 3
Disney debuted the opening minutes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 during the Hall H panel, giving fans their first look at the adaptation of The Titan’s Curse. The footage opens with Thalia Grace (Tamara Smart) walking alone through rain-soaked streets decorated for Christmas before making her way into a dimly lit parking garage. There, she confronts a towering blue monster that attacks her with blasts of fire. As the battle unfolds, Thalia repeatedly demands to know where Luke is, continuing one of the show’s central conflicts after Luke Castellan aligned himself with Kronos. Before the fight can turn against her, Percy (Walker Scobell) arrives and uses his water powers to burst a nearby water line, helping Thalia defeat the creature. He immediately asks her to join him on a mission to find Grover, but she’s surprised he even wants her on the team. While the exact circumstances differ from the opening of Riordan’s novel, the search for Grover appears to be one of the first major objectives of the new season.
Annabeth (Leah Jeffries) soon emerges from the shadows and attempts to convince Thalia to put their differences aside for the sake of rescuing two missing half-bloods. Percy and Annabeth quickly begin debating whether Thalia should accompany them, highlighting the uneasy dynamic between Zeus’ daughter and Poseidon’s son. Although both are children of the Big Three, they’ve rarely seen eye to eye since Thalia’s return. During the panel, Smart playfully described their rivalry as “generational beef,” and the footage shows exactly what she meant. Rather than wait for the argument to end, Thalia hotwires a nearby car and speeds away, bringing the preview to an abrupt close.
The footage suggests the Disney+ series will remain closely tied to Riordan’s source material, even if it reshuffles some of the novel’s earliest events. Following the preview, Scobell described Season 3 as the “most book accurate” season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians yet. Executive producer Dan Shotz echoed that sentiment, explaining that the creative team constantly references Riordan’s novels throughout production and that the books serve as a guide to faithfully bring the story to life on screen.
Stay tuned to Collider for more coverage from San Diego Comic-Con.

During her appearance, Nivea shared that she was diagnosed with leukemia, which is cancer of the blood and bone marrow, earlier this year. Additionally, she explained that she’s been “going through treatment and everything is going great so far,” and she’s “grateful to God.”
“And I expect it to continue, amen, amen, amen,” she said. “And I’m very grateful for life. You know… It’s so cliché to say: you don’t know the time nor the hour, but it’s true. It has helped me put a lot of things into perspective, and I live in gratitude.”

Recap Of Brandon Tatum’s Part One Interview With Nolan Wells’ Alleged Friend Warren Hudson
For context, YouTuber Tatum traveled to Mississippi, telling his following that he’s determined to find the truth in Nolan Wells’ case and not allow his alleged friends to become scapegoats. “…I believe some people are going to owe these boys an apology,” Tatum previously said while teasing his interview with Warren. In part one of the interview, Hudson described himself as Nolan’s best friend, despite never having met his parents. He claimed Nolan Wells was drinking alcohol while visiting Horn Island, but appeared “completely fine.” Additionally, he clarified that he wasn’t glued to Nolan’s side the entire time, but that they spoke several times on July 4.

Hudson Explains The Scene On Horn Island On July 4
In part two of Brandon Tatum’s interview, they retraced the steps taken on July 4 to arrive at Horn Island. Despite being released on Wednesday (July 22), it was filmed two days prior. In this drop, Tatum debuted home footage showing that it wasn’t only Nolan and four friends who boarded a boat and headed to the celebration. Instead, Warren explained that they took three boats out there, each packed with several people, including Nolan Wells.
Later in the 13-minute video, Brandon Tatum and Warren Hudson were on Horn Island. Tatum explained that the area on July 4 was likely packed with people and not a secluded crime scene.
“So, this wasn’t some abandoned, secluded island where nobody’s at…This wasn’t a small place where four boys took their Black friend and dropped him off and never seen again. This place was flooded with people. Tons of people, multiple boats, multiple friend groups. Everybody’s here having a good time and then the boat gets towed off because it was getting ready to sink.”
Tatum said from what he was told the “boys” Nolan Wells traveled with repeatedly encouraged him to get on the boat. They claim Nolan decided to stay behind. The YouTuber said the boys being accused of Nolan were “all gone at 4:30 p.m.” from Horn Island. For several minutes, Tatum goes in about alleged lies being spewed about the incident.
Several minutes before the video’s end, Warren Hudson explained that most people leave their phones on the boat. He insisted that was the case on July 4. “You don’t take your phone and walk around the island. There was plenty of phones on the boat, you know spread out between the three boats we had,” Hudson said.

Brandon Tatum Says He Refuses To “Hate White People” Amid Criticism Of Interview
After releasing part two of his interview with Warren Hudson, Brandon Tatum had a message about the backlash. From his rant, it appears he’d been receiving negative feedback, particularly from Black online spaces and users. He directed his message, posted on Threads, at some “ignorant melanated people” in his comment section and messages telling him he hates his people and his race.
“…And you want me to take up for people that’s wrong just because they Black. I have said from the very beginning that I support finding out what happened to Nolan Wells. Everybody want to know what happened to Nolan Wells, when I talked to the young boys, they want to know what happened to Nolan Wells cause they weren’t there when he apparently died. But you want me to go out on a limb and hate these young boys because they white. You want me to hate white people. I’m not doing it. I’m not going to hate people because of the color of their skin.”
Additionally, he said that “low-life losers” are continuing to be mad at him because he wants to hear from everybody about what could’ve happened to Nolan Wells. “Y’all just want to play the race game and I ain’t playing it,” he said. Tatum also captioned the video, “I refuse to hate white people. Be a racist all by yourself.”

The Scrubs revival is returning for a second season — but not every cast member is coming back.
The medical sitcom, which originally aired from 2001 to 2010, followed the lives of employees at the fictional teaching hospital Sacred Heart Hospital. The hit series starred Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Donald Faison, Judy Reyes, Neil Flynn, Ken Jenkins and John C. McGinley before it was brought back for a ninth season titled Med School.
In season 8, JD (Braff) left Sacred Heart while Elliott (Chalke), Turk (Faison), Dr. Cox (McGinley) and Carla (Reyes) remained at the teaching hospital. The show’s final season moved the setting to a medical school to introduce new characters.
Only Braff, Faison and McGinley remained regular cast members while others made guest appearances. Kerry Bishé, Eliza Coupe, Dave Franco and Michael Mosley were brought in, and Bishé became the show’s new narrator after Braff, but the concept only lasted one season.
