Looks like we haven't see the last of Missy.

BBC America announced Thursday that Michelle Gomez, who played Missy/The Master on the most recent season of Doctor Who, will return to the show for its new season.

Gomez was last seen in Doctor Who's season finale.

"Things have been a little beige since I left Missy behind, so I'm delighted to be putting my lippie back on," says Gomez in a statement via BBC America. "I'm positively dying to see The Doctor again!"

The two-part season premiere of Doctor Who does not have official air date but will debut sometime in fall. The two-part episode, titled "The Magician's Apprentice" and "The Witch's Familiar," was written by Steven Moffat and directed by Hettie Macdonald, who also oversaw the award-winning weeping angels episode "Blink."

Steven Moffat teased that Gomez's return would "plague" the Doctor and Clara and that "what brings her back into their lives is the last thing they’d expect.”

Doctor Who airs on Saturdays on BBC America.
