David Walliams has been removed from the preliminary cast of *The Road to Nevermore* following allegations of misconduct, TMZ reported on 28 October, citing an unnamed source close to the production. The source said the film was still in its early stages and Walliams had not signed a contract.
The allegations concern inappropriate behaviour towards female employees of HarperCollins. Walliams has strongly denied wrongdoing and said he was not told about the allegations or given an opportunity to respond. TMZ reported that the publisher had dropped plans for future deals with him and confirmed in September that it would stop publishing his existing books.
Moviefone’s cast page still lists Walliams in the film, although it does not say when its casting information was last updated.
