Original "iCarly" star Jennette McCurdy, who originally played Carly’s rambunctious best friend Sam Puckett, will not return for the revival series after recently announcing she had quit acting. Based on his absence in the trailer, it is also unlikely that Noah Munck, who played the eccentric Gibby Gibson, will appear in the new show.
The new "iCarly" is produced by Nickelodeon Studios and Awesomeness and executive produced by Jay Kogen and Ali Schouten, who also wrote the pilot. Cosgrove also serves as executive producer, with Trainor and Alissa Vradenburg serving as producers. The pilot was directed by executive producer Phill Lewis, who famously portrayed Mr. Moseby on Disney Channel’s "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody."
