Kellan Lutz, known for his role as Special Agent Kenny Crosby on the gripping CBS procedural drama FBI: Most Wanted, made the heartfelt decision to bid adieu to the series during its third season. His choice stemmed from a desire to prioritize family time in California, following a year marked by profound personal losses, notably the tragic loss of his unborn daughter six months into wife Brittany Gonzales' pregnancy. In a candid statement, Lutz shared:

"After a lot of prayer and reflection I made the difficult decision to move my growing family back aunts, uncles, and cousins, just a short drive away."

Expressing deep gratitude, he lauded the unwavering support of the show's cast and crew, acknowledging, "They've supported me in the lows and celebrated with me in the highs and I will forever be grateful".

Consequently, Crosby bid farewell to the FBI team, returning to his parents' care in Oklahoma.

While bidding farewell, Lutz hinted at the potential for a future return, sharing, "I hope Crosby is able to pop in and out here and there in the future".

Lutz's departure left an emotional void for fans, but his dedication to family and the challenges faced by his character resonate, leaving the door open for a possible reemergence of Special Agent Crosby in the future.
