And Just Like That... has lost another cast member ahead of its third season.

Deadline reports that Nya was included in the season 3 scripts and there was a real attempt to get Pittman back, but it became untenable due to her existing role in The Morning Show, and her new role in Netflix's Forever causing a big scheduling headache.
A spokesperson for streaming service Max told the publication: "It has been a joy to have Karen Pittman play the smart and stunning Professor Nya Wallace on the first two seasons of And Just Like That… As we have thoroughly enjoyed working with this dynamic actress, so too have others.
