“Fuller House” just got a little less full.
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen will not be returning to the upcoming Netflix “Full House” spinoff.
“Although Ashley and Mary-Kate will not be a part of ‘Fuller House,’ I know how much ‘Full House’ has meant to them and they are still very much considered family,” “Fuller House” executive producer Robert L. Boyett said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “It has been exciting to see how they have built their professional careers, and I support their choice to focus on their fashion brands and various business endeavors. I appreciate their support and good wishes towards ‘Fuller House.'”
