Top Boy star and executive producer Ashley Walters has opened up on why he wanted the show to finish.<\/p>\n
The Netflix drama has been part of viewers\u2019 lives since 2011, with the first two series brought to life on Channel 4 before it was given a reboot in 2019 for three more outings.<\/p>\n
Subscribers have been obsessed with Dushane (played by Ashley Walters) and Sully\u2019s (Kane \u201cKano\u201d Robinson) violent and emotional journey as they scrambled to get to the top of the drug game.<\/p>\n
So when it came out that Top Boy would end after season three on Netflix which came out in full on Thursday, September 7, fans were gutted.<\/p>\n
However, Walters has since revealed that there could have been more seasons but he and Kano turned down the opportunity.<\/p>\n
