In a report by Buzzfeed, it revealed that an actor in the show will be replaced. Aml Ameen, who played as Capheus, is leaving the show due to undisclosed reasons.
Some of the fans reacted about his departure voicing out that they are not in for the change. Some also questioned why Ameen had to leave.
