Clayne Crawford was plucked from relative obscurity before taking on the character made famous by Mel Gibson in the hit Lethal Weapon. With small roles on 24, Justified, NCIS: New Orleans, and SundanceTV's Rectify, Crawford didn't seem like a bankable choice to play Detective Martin Riggs in the small screen adaptation of the successful film franchise. Famous actor Damon Wayans, Sr. was set to play Roger Murtaugh, a role originated by Danny Glover, so would Crawford be overshadowed? Could Crawford effectively portray a loose cannon with frightening anti-social behavior? Oh man, could he.*
After two successful seasons on the buddy cop action-drama, Fox and Warner Bros. learned Crawford could apparently do it offscreen as well. From screaming profanities at 10-year-olds and forcing directors to quit mid-episode to not being very proficient with apologies or special-effects, the actor was reportedly trouble on set. Let's jump in the cruiser, hit the lights, and investigate the shady side of Clayne Crawford.*
