Netflix Has Fired Danny Masterson From THE RANCH Following Multiple Allegations Of Rape

Following four separate allegations of sexual assault, Netflix has fired co-star of The Ranch and former star of That 70s Show Danny Masterson. Masterson, who Slashfilm reports has been under investigation for the better part of the year regarding these charges, was one of the first celebrities of 2017 to be accused of sexual misconduct. 

Although he has been removed from the show, Masterson will still be featured in the new episodes of The Ranch December 15th. It is unknown if the series wrote off his character or how that all went down, but Netflix did deliver a statement regarding its decision:

“As a result of ongoing discussions, Netflix and the producers have written Danny Masterson out of The Ranch. Yesterday was his last day on the show, and production will resume in early 2018 without him.”
