Shonda Rhimes, the queen of weaving political intrigue and Scandal through the White House, is back with a new Shondaland whodunnit murder mystery in the hallowed presidential halls.

One of the TV shows we're looking forward to this year, The Residence comes from former Scandal writer Paul William Davies — and there's a new Netflix teaser out today.

Orange Is the New Black's Uzo Aduba leads as Detective Cordelia Cupp, who's called to investigate a happening at a White House State Dinner. The cast for this one is stacked, with Randall Park, Giancarlo Esposito, Al Franken, Andrew Friedman, Julian McMahon, Edwina Findley, Kylie Minogue (!) and more.

How to watch: The Residence premieres March 20 on Netflix.
