The producers of this rebooted Nick show make it seem as if it was the decision of this uninvited actress to not return.

No, it was because she was telling truth bombs about the creator of the show which is why she wasn’t asked back.

Why Is Sam Not In The iCarly Reboot?

iCarly’s reboot is finally streaming on Paramount Plus, with a return of Miranda Cosgrove as Carly herself and Nathan Kress as Freddie Benson.

While Carly and her cast members explained Sam’s on-screen absence, there’s of course a reason actress Jennette didn’t return to the show.

In March Jennette revealed she had quit the entertainment industry completely, saying she was “ashamed” of some of the characters she played in the past.

She said on her podcast Empty Inside: “I quit a few years ago because I initially didn’t want to do it.”

Jennette also explained that as she took on roles as a youngster, by age 10, she’d become “the main financial support for my family.”

And when her mum passed away it changed her plans for the future.

After iCarly she went on to star in Sam & Cat, a spin-off with her character and Ariana Grande, who played Cat Valentine.

She continued: “I’m so ashamed of the parts I’ve done in the past. I resent my career in a lot of ways.

“I feel so unfulfilled by the roles that I played and felt like it was the most cheesy, embarrassing. I did the shows that I was on from like 13 to 21, and by 15, I was already embarrassed.” – Source
