Columbus Short may be gone from ABC’s Scandal, but his character Harrison Wright is far from being a goner, despite that B613 gun to his head in the season finale. Eric West has closed a deal to continue the role of Olivia Pope & Assoc. lawyer Harrison Wright, replacing Short, on the upcoming Season Four. “We are so lucky to have someone as talented, joyful and just plain remarkable as Eric,” ABC said in a statement. Original Scandal cast member Short exited the show two weeks ago when his option was not picked up following the actor’s recent brushes with the law, including getting arrested over an alleged brawl in a West L.A. restaurant, facing up to four years in prison, and getting accused by his wife of threats to kill her and himself with a knife.
