Country legend Dolly Parton is set to guest star on the final season of Netflix's hit series "Grace and Frankie."
"It's finally happening: Dolly Parton will appear in the seventh and final season of Grace and Frankie!!!" the streaming service tweeted.
Parton's appearance on the longest-running show on Netflix will allow her to reunite with her former 9 to 5 castmates Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda. However, the video streaming giant has not revealed any additional details on Parton's role in the series.
Parton, Fonda and Tomlin had starred in the 1980 movie 9 to 5 as Doralee, Judy and Violet, three working women who decide to get revenge on their sexist boss. The movie was a superhit and generated over $100 million at the box office. The success of the movie also resulted in a sitcom of the same name in 1982 on ABC.
Meanwhile, the final season of "Grace and Frankie" dropped its first four episodes of the 16-episode season earlier this year. The rest of the episodes will drop in 2022. The show will close out with 94 total episodes, making it Netflix's longest-running original series to date.
