How I Met Your Father is going through a re-casting as Brandon Michael Hall had to exit the series.
According to Deadline, the former God Friended Me star had to depart the show due to a scheduling conflict when the filming dates for the series shifted a bit.
Daniel, who most recently had a recurring role on Grey’s Anatomy, will star as Ian.
The recurring character is described as “handsome, smart, and funny. Ian is Sophie’s Tinder match who finally meets her in person for the first time.”
In How I Met Your Father, Hilary Duff plays Sophie, who’s telling her son the story of how she met his father: a story that catapults us back to the year 2021 where Sophie and her close-knit group of friends are in the midst of figuring out who they are, what they want out of life, and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps and limitless options.
Francia Raisa, Chris Lowell, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran, and Suraj Sharma will also star in the show.
