Superstore is losing a key member of the cast. Deadline reports America Ferrera is leaving the NBC TV show after five seasons.
Ferrera plays Amy on the workplace comedy, which also stars Ben Feldman, Mark McKinney, Lauren Ash, Colton Dunn, Nico Santos, Nichole Bloom, and Kaliko Kauahi.
Superstore has already been renewed for a sixth season, but Ferrera will not be part of it. Read her statement below:
The last five years on Superstore have been some of the most rewarding, enriching and enjoyable years of my career. Producing, directing and acting with this wonderful cast and crew has given me opportunities to grow as a person and storyteller. I’m so grateful to my partners at NBC and Universal Television for the support and belief they have always placed in the show, and I’m most thankful to the brilliant Justin Spitzer for creating the funny, smart and relevant world of ‘Superstore’ and inviting me to be a part of it. As I start the next chapter for my family and career, I wish only the best, and much continued success, to my beloved Superstore family.”
Season five of Superstore airs its finale on NBC on April 16th.
