Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Attention Marshmallows, THE GOOD PLACE and FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL actress Kristen Bell has announced that VERONICA MARS is officially heading to Hulu for a brand-new season of scandal, sleuthing, and seriously good crime drama. In addition to hosting the upcoming revival of the highly-underrated mystery program, Bell also let the cat out of the bag that Hulu will make the previous three seasons of VERONICA MARS (as well as the Kickstarter-funded feature film) available to stream by Summer 2019.

Here's the official logline for the upcoming season:

Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town’s lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son’s killer, Veronica is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave’s wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast’s answer to Daytona Beach. 

Original VERONICA MARS creator Rob Thomas has been hired to write the first episode of the new season and will executive produce with Bell and series veterans Diane Ruggiero-Wright and Dan Etheridge. Unfortunately. no confirmation on returning cast members the likes of Enrico Colantoni, Jason Dohring or Tina Majorino have been announced at this time. Nevertheless, fans are bound to be excited about the news, as well as the opportunity to meet new and mysterious players for a game of deception and death.

Bell's next TV appearance will be for THE GOOD PLACE Season 3, which is set to make its NBC network debut on September 27th.
