Kristen Bell, Rob Thomas post sneak peeks of the Veronica Mars revival set
While the Veronica Mars revival series is being filmed, both star Kristen Bell and creator Rob Thomas have posted images to both Twitter and Instagram to keep the show’s fans, known affectionately as “marshmallows,” satisfied until the season is available to stream on Hulu.
First, the official Veronica Mars Twitter account posted a photo of Bell from behind, while inviting fans to “investigate” the show’s official Instagram page to follow along with the show’s production.

Speaking of the official Instagram, Bell, who initially announced the show’s return on her own account, posted a video to the show’s Instagram where she asks, amidst production, “Who would let us do this again?”
Finally, show creator Rob Thomas posted a photo of the cast after their table read. “This is some indication of who is in episode 1. It doesn’t mean your fave doesn’t come in later,” he wrote.

The Veronica Mars revival has gotten a direct-to-series order for 8 one-hour episodes from Warner Bros. Television. As part of the deal, Hulu has also struck an agreement with Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution for SVOD rights to all past episodes of the original Veronica Mars. Fans can stream seasons 1-3, as well as the 2014 feature film, beginning in summer 2019. The purpose of the shorter season is to work around Bell’s schedule on her hit NBC comedy The Good Place.

Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town’s lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son’s killer, Veronica is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave’s wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast’s answer to Daytona Beach.
Kristen Bell will both star and executive produce, with Rob Thomas, Diane Ruggiero-Wright and Dan Etheridge also executive producing. Thomas will also pen the first episode.
Veronica Mars originally aired in 2004 on UPN, a forerunner of The CW, and it featured Bell as a teenager turned private detective. Veronica’s initial case involved solving her best friend’s murder. However, she also took on an assortment of smaller cases against the backdrop of the larger story. Veronica Mars ran for three seasons and 60 episodes before it was canceled. In 2013, Thomas, Bell, and most of the series original cast put their support behind a Kickstarter campaign to fund a Veronica Mars movie. It was subsequently released in 2014, with Bell portraying Veronica as she returned to Neptune and resumed her career as a private investigator.
