"I don't think I have ever mentioned it publicly. One of the main things was, do I want to put myself back on a career path where I'm always playing the romantic lead? Fidelity in every relationship, including my marriage, is important to me," continued Badgley. "It's got to the point where I don't want to do that. So I said to Sera, 'my desire would be zero, to go from 100 to zero.' But I signed this contract. I signed up for this show. I know what I did. You can't take this aspect out of the DNA of the concept."
"So how much less can you make it, was my question to them. She didn't even bat an eye. She was really glad that I was that honest. She was sort of almost, I want to say empowered, it had a really positive response. They came back with a phenomenal reduction," reported Deadline.
