The promo shows Mars uncover mystery, scandal and corruption as a wave of bombings hit the fictional town of Neptune, Calif.

"It's possible that these bombings are part of a campaign to destroy Neptune as a spring break destination," the sleuth says.

Jason Dohring also returns as Logan Echolls, with Percy Daggs III as Wallace Fennel, Francis Capra as Eli "Weevil" Navarro, Enrico Colantoni as Keith Mars and Ryan Hansen as Dick Casblancas.

New cast members include Dawnn Lewis, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Patton Oswalt, Clifton Collins, Jr., and J.K. Simmons.

Veronica Mars initially had a three-season run on UPN/The CW from 2004 to 2007. Hulu released a first teaser for the revival, which debuts July 26, in April.
