Sheridan is exiting The CW reboot a little over a year after joining midway through Season 1 to take on the role of Alexis Carrington, the legendary Dynasty character originated by Joan Collins. Dynasty marked Sheridan's first regular TV role since her controversial exit (https://people.com/tv/nicollette-sheridan-desperate-housewives-lawsuit/) from Desperate Housewives in 2009. “Nicollette Sheridan will be leaving Dynasty in order to focus on some personal family responsibilities," CBS Television Studios said in a statement. "She was a valuable asset to the show and we wish her continued success in the future.” According to TVLine, Sheridan's role may be recast after her March departure. Dynasty has already been renewed for a third season.

Hendrix will reunite with her FX Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll co-star Elizabeth Gillies, who plays Alexis' daughter Fallon, on The CW's Dynasty. Hendrix will actually be the third person on The CW series to take on the iconic role, which Joan Collins originated in the original Dynasty series. Following Sheridan's abrupt exit earlier this year, Gillies briefly took on the Alexis Carrington role.

Apparently, Elizabeth Gillies and Nicolette Sheridan HATED each other. Gillies' very dry sense of humor upset Sheridan during filming of the Season 1 finale. When they returned that summer for Season 2, Sheridan made sure that her screen-time with Gillies has kept on the minimum. Half-way through Season 2, the producers got fed up with trying to write around the Sheridan's demands so they fired her. Giles and the writers decided to stick the knife into Sheridan by making Giles play a version of her character even mimicking her mannerisms.
