Jones first joined theSNL writer's room in early 2014, frequently serving as a guest commentator on the series' Weekend Update segment. In October of the same year, Jones was made a featured player for the remainder of Season 40. She became a repertory player in Season 42.
Per Variety, Jones' departure from SNL came as part of her decision to focus on other projects, including undisclosed film opportunities and her already-confirmed Netflix stand-up comedy special. NBC has yet to announce a replacement for Jones.
That said, SNL's Season 45 cast will include plenty of recognizable faces — most notably, repertory players Kate McKinnon and Kenan Thompson.
