The Pitt has been under fire after several controversial cast exits, but there could be more changes coming sooner rather than later.
“Emergency rooms have a high revolving door,” Noah Wyle told Variety at PaleyFest’s screening of The Pitt on Sunday, April 12. “As always, we try to bring in new characters or promote from within as we go through these cast changes and try to keep the story lines fresh.”
Wyle, 54, who plays Dr. Robby, didn’t rule out more departures before the show starts filming season 3, adding, “It’s an inevitability that’s going to happen every season with this show, because as writers we’re hard-pressed to figure out what a lapse of time we can have and keep most of the ensemble together realistically.”
The actor’s insight into The Pitt’s future came after news broke that Supriya Ganesh will be written out of the show after season 2. The decision received backlash from fans who were still upset at Tracy Ifeachor’s exit after season 1.
“Obviously Supriya has been a huge part of our show since the beginning,” Wyle told Variety on Sunday. “Dr. Mohan is a beloved character, and I love playing with her and working with Supriya, and we wish her all the best in her next endeavors, and we’re going to miss her.”
Creator R. Scott Gemmill also weighed in on the ongoing cast shakeups.
“It’s sort of the nature of the show. Unfortunately, the way the medical profession works, you come in, you learn, you move on, and we want to try and be as truthful to that process as possible,” he explained. “So we’re going to turn over our cast. But I think it’s a great launching pad for people, and that’s the best we can do.”
Ganesh, 28, for her part, was not in attendance at the event.
“Hi everyone — not sure why it’s not removed off the site but I will not be at Paleyfest this Sunday,” she wrote via Instagram on Thursday, April 10. “I know some of you bought tickets to see me and I hope you know this is not a decision I take lightly. Love you all.”
It was originally announced in February that Ganesh would appear at the panel alongside showrunner Gemmill and cast members Wyle, Katherine LaNasa, Isa Briones, Shawn Hatosy, Sepideh Moafi and Taylor Dearden.
Briones, 27, Hatosy, 50, and Moafi, 40, were later removed from the schedule due to new work commitments. Ganesh, however, didn’t give a reason for her absence and has yet to break her silence about not returning to the hit HBO Max series.
The actress previously told Us Weekly in February that she was “curious” where her character’s arc would be when season 3 began, noting, “It’s up to the writers. Let’s see where they end up taking her.”
Ganesh concluded: “I think we left her in a really interesting spot. I’m really curious where she ends up going.”
New episodes of The Pitt air Thursdays on HBO Max.
