Dunbar's character Michael Grant was abruptly written off in last night’s episode because of new COVID protocols requiring all actors to be vaccinated. "I hear Dunbar requested a medical exemption and later sought a religious exemption," reports Deadline's Nellie Andreeva. "Both were reviewed by Disney and were rejected, sources said. According to insiders, Dunbar is not believed to be anti-vaxxer but declined to comply with the Covid vaccine mandate based on the grounds he presented, which led to his exit from 9-1-1."
