Aidy Bryant and Kyle Mooney will also leave the cast of the venerable latenight show that aired its 47th season finale on Saturday. The departures represent one of the biggest cast shake-ups in years on a show that has seen unusual steadiness in recent seasons.
Pete Davidson is leaving Studio 8H. The comedian is poised to sign off for good from NBC’s Saturday Night Live, where he has been a staple for the past eight seasons after joining the Lorne Michaels sketch comedy as one of its youngest-ever castmembers. Castmembers Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant and Kyle Mooney are also expected to announce their departure alongside Davidson during SNL’s season 47 finale, to be hosted by Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll) and featuring musical guest Japanese Breakfast.
