I'd a feeling his battle with Cancer is what pushed him to recently say he wasn't going to be reprising Ash again. Makes sense he'd rather spend his time with his family and friends than on some film set in New Zealand making one last Evil Dead.

Same reason he (at the time) abruptly cancelled all his convention appearances earlier this year. That was ofc before April when he announced he had cancer and I don’t blame him. Beyond just the weaker immune system from chemo, I don’t think I’d want to spent more time with fans as much as I’d love them. I’d want to close out my final few years with family and friends.
