Hartley Sawyer

Project: The Flash

Hartley Sawyer rose to fame for his role in the soap opera The Young and the Restless. The 36-year-old actor also appeared in Kept Man and Caper for some minor acting credits. He also landed the role of Ralph Dibny or the Elongated Man on The Flash. As one of his breakthrough roles, he was already set to become more famous for this role. However, Sawyer did not last in The CW show.

This could have been the actor’s big boost in his career if only he had not tweeted unnecessary comments and derogatory remarks online about gender and race. The producers announced Sawyer’s departure and decided that they will not allow such behavior, saying such remarks do not mirror their values and policies in their workforce. Although Sawyer already tweeted his apology, it was too late for the star to gain back his role.
