Nicolette Sheridan herself had a hand in ruining her acting career. She stayed on the Desperate Housewives series until 2009. Undoubtedly, the role of Ida Britt brought Nicolette immense popularity, however, after her dismissal from the series, she no longer acts in films.
In the second season of Desperate Housewives, Nicolette Sheridan made about $ 250,000 per episode. The money earned by the actress should be enough for the rest of her life, but her acting career seems to be over.
In 2009, Nicolette was kicked out of the series, and she decided to start a trial. At first, the actress told reporters that she was tired of her character and that Ida Britt had a boring storyline, but then she filed a lawsuit against the ABC channel and Mark Cherry, the creator of the series.
During the trial, Nicolette Sheridan claimed that her contract was illegally terminated. The actress complained that she was the victim of abuse and harsh treatment by the project leaders. Allegedly, she was even beaten and humiliated.
The actress's statement of claim took 15 pages, but the result was disastrous. Sheridan lost both trials.
Now the eccentric actress is out of work. Not a single film company wants to cooperate with her.
Sheridan tries in every possible way to maintain interest in himself and often appears at social events. Some time ago, information appeared in the press that Sheridan was going to launch his own project, where he would play a major role, however, the matter did not go beyond words.
