"Missed her? @tyrabanks is BACK. #ANTM," the America's Next Top Model official Twitter account captioned the video.

The promo shows Banks suiting up on the runway before asking the camera, "Did you miss me?" The television personality also shared the video on her own account.

"The boss is BACK. #ANTM returns to the runway in 2018 on @VH1," she wrote.

Banks is the creator of America's Next Top Model. She hosted the show throughout its initial 22-season run on UPN/The CW. She stepped down after the series was canceled and subsequently revived on VH1.

"I missed my ANTM baby so Mama's back! #ANTM #ANTM24," the star explained in March of her decision to return to the show.
