American Gods star Ian McShane has once again spoken about the exit of showrunners Bryan Fuller and Michael Green.
After arguing that Fuller and Green's exit might have been a "good thing" for the show, McShane has now put their departure down to "ego, hubris and money".
He told Den of Geek: "Lawyers were involved, you couldn't talk about shit.
"I think it's a lot to do with ego, hubris and money."

"I think a lot of the other actors worried about Michael and Bryan leaving," McShane continued. "People at the time were upset, they were all over the place.
What to Read Next
"I've been around a little longer, that's all. Life moves on."
He also discussed the upcoming second season of American Gods. "I think season two actually is better than season one. I think you get back to the book more," McShane said.
"There's a visual style which we have kept to but script-wise we've gone back to the book, expanded the characters that you know of, expanded the story.
"It's still about immigration, it's about integration, it's about faith, it's about love, about people getting on with their lives in an extraordinary way."
American Gods returns on March 10 on Starz in the US, with Amazon Prime Video airing the show a day later on March 11 in the UK.
