Dolly Parton’s headed for a long-overdue reunion with her 9 to 5 co-stars Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda this year, on the final season of Netflix’s Grace and Frankie, which stars Lily and Jane.

Back in November, Netflix confirmed that Dolly would appear somewhere in the final season of Grace and Frankie. The show, which is Netflix’s longest-running original series ever, concludes this year after seven seasons.

Now, Dolly’s much-anticipated cameo on the show is getting closer: A new trailer says that the final episodes of Grace and Frankie will head to Netflix on April 29.

In early 2021, Dolly told U.K. talk show Lorraine that she’s been trying to find a time to guest star on Grace and Frankie “for years.”

“We worked so well on 9 to 5, [and] it’s a crazy, wonderful show,” the singer said at the time. “We’ve been trying to write me in somehow. When it’s safe for us to actually do a production…I’ll probably get around to doing that.”

Dolly, Lily and Jane starred as co-workers getting revenge on their sexist boss in the 1980 classic, which featured Dolly’s mega-hit of the same title, “9 to 5.”
