Whenever she’s been asked about what happened, Chelsea Peretti has stayed pretty cryptic about the backstory of her Brooklyn Nine-Nine departure. “Well, I can’t even fully get into it all,” she told Entertainment Weekly in late January 2019. “But it just kind of worked out to be that way. It’s like most things in show business, there’s not a simple answer and there’s not a transparent answer.”
Around that same time, the actress told The Hollywood Reporter something similar. “I can’t get into the exact breakdown of how it all transpired, but it wasn’t just my solo decision,” she revealed. “It’s not always easy to make changes in life, but I feel like everyone came to a point where everyone was like, “OK, this is the time.” That’s the gist of it.”
Emphasizing the collaborative nature of the choice, Peretti added to THR, “I’m friends with Dan [Goor], I’m friends with Andy [Samberg], I’ve talked with them about the situation over the years. I think it came together this was the time to do it.” She also joked, “I wasn’t just like, ‘I’m leaving!’ and I swing my cape.”
Peretti’s pal and co-star, Andy Samberg, has hinted that she’s got other exciting plans in the works, potentially contributing to the decision to leave.
