The longtime SUR employee, who has made appearances on the Bravo television show throughout its 12 years on air,  suggested he might still be seen on TV screens, despite the cast shakeup

Madrigal continues to work at Lisa Vanderpump's West Hollywood restaurant while the original cast has moved on from their bartending, hosting, and serving jobs.

The new cast consists of 'close-knit SUR-vers who are as complicatedly involved with one another as their iconic predecessor,' the network said this week.

Lisa will be returning and the upcoming season will begin filming in 2025, with the new cast and premiere date to be announced at a later time.

DailyMail.com has contacted a representative for NBCUniversal, Bravo's parent company, for comment.

Last season's fixtures included Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz, Katie Maloney, Lala Kent, James Kennedy and Scheana Shay.

'What a thrill it is to build on the legacy of this series by doing it all over again,' executive producer Alex Baskin said in a statement.

'With profound appreciation for the original group and their iconic run, we can’t wait for the audience to see a dynamic new group of co-workers and friends make their way through life together,' he added.

The official press release noted, 'Under Lisa Vanderpump’s watchful eye, the West Hollywood mainstay SUR welcomes the next batch of servers, hosts and bartenders rife with plenty of drama, situationships and frenemies.'

According to TMZ, the 40-year-old restaurant manager has insinuated that he is the one familiar face that could remain in future seasons

Lisa said in the announcement: 'The last 12 years of filming have been an extraordinary run full of laughter, tears and everything in between. I can’t thank enough those who have shared their lives.

'How I love you all. In the restaurant business, one shift always gives way to another. Cheers to the next generation of Vanderpump Rules.'

The show 'will celebrate the past decade of heartbreaks, friendship rifts and scandals with a retrospective special highlighting the past 11 seasons', the release also stated.

TMZ reported that the original cast only learned about the show's new direction the evening before the news broke.

And it was noted by the outlet that most of the original stars were not surprised by the shake-up, given the show's recent hiatus.
