Some big names will be coming to the Mystery Science Theater 3000 reboot.

Jerry Seinfeld, Mark Hamill and Community star Joel McHale confirmed on Twitter that they'll be making guest appearances on the new season of the rebooted comedy cult classic.

Mythbusters star and special effects guru Adam Savage will also consult on effects for the season, presumably in a puppet-related capacity.

These four are just the most recent notable additions to the MST3K reboot. Community and Rick & Mortycreator Dan Harmon will join creator Joel Hodgson as a writer, along with writers whose assembled credits include Rick & Morty, Frozen and The Lego Movie sequel. Comedian Patton Oswalt will also write and act on the show.

In addition to Oswalt, new cast members joining Hodgson will include Felicia Day, Hampton Yount, Baron Vaughn, and Jonah Ray.

Hodgson said he also reached out to Bill Hader, Neil Patrick Harris and Jack Black about making cameos on the show, but hasn't heard back yet.

Hodgson has been crowdsourcing funds for the new season on Kickstarter. Nine episodes have already been funded, and the pledge drive for three more episodes ends on Friday with a livestreamed MST3K double feature followed by a telethon.
