Following the announcement of the return of Michael Che, stand-up comedian Pete Davidson, who you probably saw do stand-up on Kimmel earlier this year, is set to be the only new cast member on the 40th season of Saturday Night Live, premiering later this month.

Additionally, Michael Patrick O’Brien who was featured in the cast last year is returning this season as a writer, leaving SNL with less three less players than last year.

However, as SNL casted Sasheer Zamata midseason, don’t think that all of this is written in stone.

Noel Wells, John Milheiser, and Nasim Pedrad Not Coming Back to SNL

The contracts of Noel Wells and John Milhiser, much like Brooks Wheelan, were not renewed for the next season of Saturday Night Live. Nasim Pedrad is also leaving for Mulaney, which is making its series premiere this Fall on Fox.

With three cast members gone and the fate of the cast member who got bumped up from staff writer, Michael Patrick O’Brien, up in the air, one has to wonder if SNL will do a large casting overhaul for next season just like they did for this season.
