Sutton Foster, Darren Criss, Alexander Gemignani, and more will appear in the new season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Deadline reports that Foster, Criss, Hank Azaria, Danny Strong, Sean Gunn, and David Paymer will appear as guest stars in the new season. Gemignani will be featured in a heavily recurring role.

The appearances will reunite Sutton, Strong and Gunn with creator Amy Sherman-Palladino. After appearing in the series Bunheads, Foster previously recorded a rendition of "I Enjoy Being a Girl" for Mrs. Maisel's third season.

In the fifth and final season, Midge finds herself closer than ever to the success she's dreamed of, only to discover that closer than ever is still so far away.

The series, which has shattered glass ceilings for the past six years, will Raise the Curtain on its final act on April 14, 2023 with a three-episode premiere and new episodes weekly, until the finale on May 26.
