Let’s start with what – or rather, who – we won’t see: Carly’s best friend, Sam (Jeanette McCurdy), or the gang’s friend/prank guinea pig, Gibby (Noah Munck).
After spinoff Sam & Cat ended, Jeanette McCurdy distanced herself from acting, so it makes sense that we won’t see her on the iCarly revival.
Jeanette McCurdy has said in the past that she felt “unfulfilled” by her work on iCarly, not to mention “embarrassed.”
It’s unclear why Noah Munck won’t be coming back, but Jeanette McCurdy’s absence is probably no surprise to those who’ve been keeping up with the Sam & Cat actress.
