Looks like you'll be getting a little less Shooter this season.
After Ryan Phillippe suffered a broken leg from a "freak accident" on a family outing earlier this month, Paramount TV announced that the second season of the 42-year-old actor's USA drama would be cut from 10 episodes to eight, Deadline reports.
"Our priority is Ryan’s recovery, and after conversations with our partners at USA and UCP we’ve decided that we will wrap S2 with episode 208," Paramount TV said in a statement to the outlet.
