The show will look drastically different from previous seasons as longtime cast members Pete Davidson, Aidy Bryant, Kate McKinnon, Kyle Mooney, Alex Moffat, Melissa Villaseñor, and Aristotle Athari have all left the late-night show.

Chris Redd — who portrayed everyone from New York City Mayor Eric Adams to Jay-Z and Barack Obama during his five-year run on the show — also announced that Monday he will not be returning.
