Barton Fitzpatrick is an actor known for playing the role of Reg Taylor on The Chi.
It has returned to the screen for its third season.
But the series underwent a bit of a transition just before the season returned with some big characters leaving and one castmate leaving due to abuse allegations.

Jason Mitchell was fired from the show after two cast members filed complaints with Human Resources over inappropriate behavior.

Ayanna Floyd Davis said,

“As showrunner, I did everything I could to deal with his behavior, by speaking with the studio’s HR department multiple times and instructing one actress to call HR herself, before I became a target of his rage and inappropriateness, and had to report him to HR, as well,”

In the season 2 finale, Barton Fitzpatrick’s character was shot by assailants on motorcycles. As per rumors, he was not okay with the storyline of him being in a relationship with a trans woman.

There was a YouTube video that had the title, “‘ The Chi’ Star REGGIE Allegedly Fired For Refusing To Date a Trans,” which made fans curious.

Fans were concerned about his character being killed to which Barton tweeted,

“Y’all crying over Reg like y’all actually saw him get buried or an obituary….”
