“Today is unexpectedly my last day shooting on Superstore for this season,” Ferrera announced in an Instagram story late Friday.
As a result, the penultimate 21st episode, which wrapped production on Friday, will now function as the Season 5 finale.
In the aforementioned Instagram story, Ferrera hinted that she might return next season to ensure Amy gets a proper goodbye.
An NBC insider confirms that Superstore will not be able to shoot its planned season finale — episode 22 — as a result of the widespread coronavirus-fueled work stoppage gripping Hollywood.
