Overview
- Morgan said Monday on the Happy Sad Confused podcast that a longtime manager fired him in his mid- to late-30s saying he had "aged out," a claim reported and corroborated across multiple outlets.
- He recalled that within about a week of being dropped he booked three breakout TV parts—Supernatural, Grey’s Anatomy and Weeds—which he says changed his career trajectory.
- Morgan described being close to quitting acting at about 38, supporting himself with handyman and other side jobs while booking only occasional pilots and guest spots.
- He called his Grey’s Anatomy role as Denny Duquette a limited but career-changing turn of roughly 10 to 11 episodes that raised his public profile and led to more work.
- The accounts are presented as a retrospective anecdote rather than a legal dispute, and they underline a common industry practice of managers cutting clients judged as less marketable because of age.
