The season 51 cast of Saturday Night Live might look a little different than last year, according to showrunner Lorne Michaels. Michaels, 80, told Puck in a profile published on Sunday, August 24, that he hoped to shake up the casting lineup.

For context, Punkie Johnson, Molly Kearney and Chloe Troast exited after Season 49, leaving the rest of the cast the same. While there were additions too, for the most part, the ensemble was consistent from season to season.
