Mark your calendars, The Missing fans. Spin-off series Baptiste is officially headed to Masterpiece this spring.

The six-part series will feature Turkish-born French actor Tchéky Karyo reprising his role as as the insightful and stubborn French detective Julien Baptiste in a story that takes place two years after the events of The Missing Season 2. Turns out that Baptiste's whole brain surgery situation turned out fine, apparently, and that's probably the only detail you need to know from the original series in order to enjoy this sequel of sorts.

Baptiste will officially premiere on PBS' Materpiece beginning Sunday, April 12, at 10 pm ET and run through May 17.
