Vince Gilligan is returning to Albuquerque—and science fiction. The acclaimed creator of AMC’s Breaking Bad and its spin-off Better Call Saul, who also worked for multiple years on Fox’s The X-Files (and co-created spin-off The Lone Gunman) just revealed a tiny bit of information about his new series starring Emmy-nominated Saul star Rhea Seehorn.

In a new interview with Variety, Gilligan said now that the WGA strike is over, the writers room for the as-yet-untitled show is reopening. “When the strike hit, we were very close to the end of breaking the first season,” he explained. “So we’re going to go back and finish the second-to-last episode and then get to work on the last episode ... We’re looking forward to getting back to work. We would have been shooting already if it weren’t for the strike. The strike was a sad necessity, and we’re all glad that it’s behind us.”
