"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,'" a spokesperson told Variety. "As we have thoroughly enjoyed working with this dynamic actress, so too have others. Due to her commitments to two other streamer series, it has become apparent that filming three shows at once isn't possible.
