English actor, Theo James did not return to his role as Sidney Parker in the British tv show, Sanditon season 2. This broke the hearts of many fans of the show, however, producers of the show made sure that it comes out very well and still gets the people’s love and attention.
James expressed that he wanted the role of Sidney to conclude specifically as he the actor wanted but the producers were not willing to do that, hence, his exit.
“Although I relished playing Sidney, for me, I’ve always maintained that his journey concluded as I wanted it to. The broke fairytale-like ending between Charlotte and Sidney is different, unique and so interesting to me, and I wish the cast and crew of Sanditon every success with future series,” he shared.
At the end of season 1, fans saw Sidney reject Charlotte, feeling it was his family’s duty to marry for money. Charlotte said;
“I take no satisfaction after the fact that a lot of people want that happily ever after. And we would love the opportunity to give it to them. Of course, Sidney is going to find a way around it! He’s our hero!”
