It seems there might be more changes coming up in the Platt family, as it’s been rumored that an actor playing one of them will be replaced.
According to The Sun, the character played by Harry Platt, who is Sarah’s (Tina O’Brien) on-screen son, will be reinterpreted because young actor Carter J Murphy has secured a leading role in the West End production of Matilda the Musical.
Although it’s a thrilling endeavor, it unfortunately required so much time that Murphy couldn’t rejoin the cast of Coronation Street and had to relinquish his role, a position he’d occupied for just a year.
ITV declined to comment when approached by TopMob.
In the previous year, I found myself affirming the rumors about Harry’s character being recast. I shared this information with the media by saying something along the lines of: “Indeed, they have chosen a new actor to portray Harry. From what I hear, Carter is quite certain about his role.
A new report states that another young talent named Josh will soon appear in the role, making his debut on television within the next few weeks.
It’s always regrettable when an original cast member departs and a replacement is brought in, but there have certainly been many shifts happening backstage with “Coronation Street” lately.
More recently, it has been disclosed that Sally Ann Matthews is set to depart from ITV soap after playing the character of Jenny Connor (or Jenny Bradley), a role she’s portrayed intermittently since 1986.
As a cinephile eagerly following Coronation Street’s storylines, I can’t help but notice some notable departures that have left quite an impact. Recently, Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) and Craig Tinker (Colson Smith) bid their farewells to Weatherfield, while it appears Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) is preparing for his exit by the year’s end.
