Are they going to recast Fez?

Sam Levinson revealed the real reason why he did not kill off Fez’s character in an interview with People magazine,
[When I told him Fez would die in a season 2 shootout] I could just see the blood kind of run out of his face. I think the hardest thing is when you have addiction issues — it’s about finding your purpose and finding your meaning in life. The one thing that I knew is he loved making this show. He loved the crew. He loved the actors. He loved everything about it. And I just thought, if this goes away, I don’t know what’s going to happen in his life. […] [I told my producing partners] I can’t do it. I can’t kill him. We got to keep him around. He’s too special. It doesn’t matter what the f—king story is. ”
Fez’s character was supposed to die in season one, but the actor’s real-life struggle with addiction halted Sam Levinson from killing him, he wanted to help the actor by keeping him around the cast members he adored and enjoyed working with.
