Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, and Kyle Mooney are set to exit 'SNL' alongside Pete Davidson.
Several major cast members have announced their departure from Saturday Night Live, in what is sure to lead to a major shakeup in the sketch comedy series. Per Deadline, Aidy Bryant , Pete Davidson , Kate McKinnon , and Kyle Mooney will all take the stage for a final time in tomorrow evening's episode, hosted by Natasha Lyonne . All four have been with the cast for at least eight years and have become true perennials with audiences and the series.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The veteran cast member presence will still be intact, with the likes of Cecily Strong , Kenan Thompson , and Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che staying on. Thompson is notably the show's longest-tenured cast member of all time, initially joining the show as a featured player in 2003. Of the four talents leaving, Davidson spent the least amount of time on SNL with eight years.
All four leaving cast members have a number of projects currently airing or in production. McKinnon and Davidson are perhaps slightly more mainstream to audiences, with both appearing in a number of major Hollywood films. McKinnon has had roles in films like Office Christmas Party, Yesterday, and Bombshell. She recently appeared in the Peacock series Joe vs. Carole as the big cat-loving Carole Baskin.
