Nick, who plays AFC Richmond assistant coach Nate Shelley, has taken to social media to tease an long-awaited update on the football comedy-drama.
The actor, 44, told fans that his Show Pony comedy tour is being rescheduled “for some filming I have not been able to shift for love of money."
He added: "I cannot say what that filming is. But it will be announced shortly.
“In the meantime, I would really appreciate if people just didn’t speculate as to what they think it might be. The last thing I want is for people to be going mad.”
