Tate Donovan Bites the Dust

As we've learned from the plights of Patton Oswalt and Ryan Devlin this spring, no one is ever really safe from the pilot season recasting phenomenon. The latest actors to be cut just as their pilot goes to series are Tate Donovan and Christina Chang, who were quietly dismissed from ABC's superhero series No Ordinary Family after creator Greg Berlanti decided there wasn't much he could do with their characters. Both actors were told that they could still maybe return to the series in guest star capacities. [EW]
