Cooper reveals. Nevertheless people close to Cooper were against his decision, the actor decided to meet the show’s creator J.J Abrams and asked to be written out of the series “J.J. was like, ‘Okay.’ He probably would’ve fired me, anyway”.

And I’m sober, and I’m like, ‘Oh, I’m actually myself. And I don’t have to put on this air to be somebody else, and this person still wants to work with me? Oh, what the f**k is that about?’ I was rediscovering myself in this workplace, and it was wonderful”. He says
