What did the stars say about Top Boy ending?
Lead actor, Ashley Walters, has been open and honest about wanting the show to come to an end.
Speaking to GQ in an interview in September 2023, he admitted that even though he thought Top Boy had run its course, Netflix "wanted it to go on forever."
"You don’t see 60 or 70-year-old top boys, unless it’s the mafia. So I feel like we’re doing the right thing."
"Kano and I were like, personally, we can’t. We don’t think it’s the right thing to do. It may have gone on too long anyway," he said.
"Not that it’s not been great and the seasons have all been great and everyone’s loved them and I’ve loved them," he continued, "but it wouldn’t have been right. I like to end on a high."
Jasmine Jobson, who played female gang member Jaq echoed this sentiment.
