It was announced that neither Mary-Kate nor Ashley Olsen will be part of the Netflix series based on the classic sitcom Full House. And based on a report from E! News on Monday, Ashley said she ran into her onscreen father Bob Saget and they didn't even talk about the show. Apparently, neither of the twins knew it was happening until John Stamos announced it on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
So Stamos talked about this with Howard Stern on SiriusXM where it all sounds kind of complicated.
Did Mary-Kate Olsen Get Plastic Surgery?
"I think there was some confusion," Stamos said. "They said first I didn't ask them. And I didn't personally, but I was told they were asked. So I had a knee-jerk reaction and said, 'Bulls--t, I did ask them.' And they got upset, so I did call and talked to Mary-Kate and explained what the show is going to be and told them I'd love them to be on there and they decided not to, which I respect."
The actor, who played Uncle Jesse on the sitcom, pointed out that the Olsen twins likely chose not to be part of the revival because they're not part of the acting world anymore.
"They seemed very into it. They just were afraid of acting. They don't consider themselves actresses," Stamos said. "I said maybe you guys will be in New York and we'll do a phone call or something and they were like, 'Let us think about it,' and it just wasn't for them."
