The forthcoming season of TV’s longest-running series adds to its stellar roster of guest appearance — again!

That’s right, another A-lister has lent their voice to The Simpsons. This time it was Academy Award-winner and star of Netflix’s acclaimed drama The Crown, Olivia Colman. And apparently, it’s one of the best guest appearances ever on the show. 

The news was first announced by executive producer James L. Brooks. He took to Twitter Friday writing: “Just this second came from recording one of the best guest appearances in Simpson’s history. No kidding, I am flying.”

He added that Colman gave voice to “the most down home femme fatal(e) ever who attracts every man she’s ever met but falls hard, harder than she ever imagined, for Homer Simpson.”

Colman joins guest appearance by John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, Jason Momoa, Bob Odenkirk, John Mulaney, and Jane Goodall. 

The Simpsons returns September 29.
