READ TIME: 1 MIN.

Good news for people who want more "Tiger King" episodes!

After reports surfaced earlier this week that a new episode of the docuseries would soon be coming to Netflix, the streaming company confirmed the news, announcing Thursday that an after-show special called "The Tiger King and I" hosted by Joel McHale will be released on April 12.

The special will feature new interviews with a number of subjects from "Tiger King," which has become a huge sensation, including John Reinke, Joshua Dial, John Finlay, Saff, Erik Cowie, Rick Kirkham, and Jeff and Lauren Lowe, Deadline reports. They will talk about their personal experiences since the show appeared on Netflix last month.

The announcement came in the form of a shirtless McHale, wearing a cowboy hat and a leopard print shall, talking about the new episode in a video shared by the official Netflix account.

"It's eye-opening and hopefully funny," McHale says in the clip.

"Tiger King" follows Joseph Maldonado-Passage, a.k.a. "Joe Exotic," an openly gay former Oklahoma zoo owner who specialized in exotic animals; mostly tigers. He's currently serving a 22-year prison sentence for his role in a murder-for-hire plot against Carole Baskin, a staunch critic of Joe Exotic.
