The end of Black Lightning was announced by The CW last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The actress confirmed she did not know the series would be ending with its fourth season until the news<\/a> was announced.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I did know and have known along with the rest of the cast since before we even started shooting this season is that I am leaving the show. And was leaving the show. This was going to be my last season.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n \"I'm<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

McClain will also not be back as a regular during the final season, announcing she is only signed on for a limited number of episodes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The actress did not delve into her decision to leave, but did leave some hints.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s been a lot to happ<\/a>en over this quarantine, and I\u2019m not talking about the PC side of it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cGod is moving me in more than one way than just this show. It\u2019s bigger than this show. I\u2019m doing God\u2019s work now\u2026 and I\u2019m not doing anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

She did say, however, that she was not leaving the series because of any on-set drama, and said that she it was a personal choice to depart.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI like the CW. I like [CW network president] Mark Pedowitz, I like [Warner Bros. president] Peter Roth, [EP] Greg Berlanti, I love [showrunner] Salim [Akil], I always will. He gets it. And people that actually know me\u2026 they know why I make the decisions that I make.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actress went on to congragulate Akil and co-star Jordan Calloway following the recent announcement that a spinoff is in development.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n \"Jennifer's<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cCongratulations to Salim and Jordan, who just got a spinoff. Please support him in that. God did that for him and he\u2019s going to do great, I know it,\u201d McClain added.<\/p>\n
