Reba McEntire is returning to television in February. The country superstar and actor is set to make a guest appearance on an upcoming episode of Young Sheldon.

According to a press release, McEntire will play the role of June, "the fun, fiery ex-wife of Coach Ballard," played by Craig T. Nelson. June "strikes up an unlikely friendship with Meemaw," who is dating Ballard.

Annie Potts portrays Meemaw on Young Sheldon, which follows the early life of Sheldon Cooper, the nerdy character popularized on the iconic sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Iain Armitage plays young Sheldon, and Jim Parsons, who portrayed the older Shelton in The Big Bang Theory, narrates the show, on which he serves as an executive producer.

McEntire's episode is slated to run in February during the show's regular time slot on Thursdays at 7 PM CT on CBS.
