Modern Family Recast Character

steve levitanA Modern Family character may be recast for the upcoming season. The ABC comedy is looking for a new actor to play the part of Cameron and Mitchell’s adopted daughter Lily, currently played by twins Jaden and Ella Hiller.
Sources say the network adores the twins however they have started to think that they would rather be at home playing than working as actors, executive producer Steve Levitan told other sources. However fans of the character, and the twins that play the little one should know it is not a done deal. It we end up making a change, it is only because we want what’s best for them. Levitan previously hinted to sources that trouble was brewing with the tiny stars.
We all may determine that as gorgeous and sweet as Jaden and Ella are, it is not what they signed to do or what they love, he told sources in May. Maybe they don’t love to be on a set and have to listen to us do a scene ten times. Maybe they would be happier being kids. We don’t want them to be unhappy. If we feel its not in their best interest to stay, wee will replace them, and ask that people forgive us for doing so.
Modern family starts filming its third season, beginning next month in Los Angeles, according to sources.
