Hill Harper has decided to transition from the scripts to bills. He has officially ended his role as Dr. Marcus Andrews on The Good Doctor, announcing he will not be returning for season 7.
A spokesperson for Harper's campaign released a statement regarding his decision, saying that his focus is on saving democracy. They mentioned that Harper feels strongly that there is a crisis in American democracy and he will be running for the U.S. Senate as an active union member in order to give working people more of a voice in Congress.
Harper was one of three remaining series regulars from season one of The Good Doctor and his character's resignation was the perfect setup for his exit. He announced his candidacy four months ago and will be challenging Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin, who has received the majority of endorsements from leading political figures in the state and federal government. The current seat is held by Debbie Stabenow.
Harper's main focuses for his campaign are universal healthcare, climate justice, raising the federal minimum wage, and eliminating filibusters from the U.S. Senate. He recently supported legislation signed by Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer that protects victims of domestic violence by keeping firearms out of their abuser's hands.
While fans will miss Dr. Andrews, they can still look forward to more drama when The Good Doctor returns on Feb. 20 on ABC. Hill Harper has made the decision to pursue his campaign in order to save democracy and give more of a voice to working people. We need more common-sense gun laws getting passed around the country to protect victims of domestic violence and Harper's support of the legislation signed by Whitmer was a great step in the right direction.
