Wenworth Miller will no longer portray Captain Cold on DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

Miller announced the news on Instagram, revealing he's currently filming his last episodes as Leonard Snart (a.k.a. Captain Cold). However, Miller did not reveal the exact reasons behind his departure.

“Currently shooting some of my final episodes as “Captain Cold/Leonard Snart," Miller wrote. "Grateful - now and in advance - to a pair of talented casts and hardworking crews. Thank you. I've had a tremendous time playing this character. It’s been an opportunity, an education, and a f***ing blast.”

Miller first played Captain Cold in the first season of The Flash. The actor then became a series regular on the first season of Legends of Tomorrow. After briefly exiting the series after Season 1, Miller has since reappeared multiple times on the show as a series regular once again. The CW announced him as one of several familiar faces set to appear in recurring guest roles during Legends' third season.
