America's Got Talent is doing its best to move on from the fallout following Gabrielle Union's exit by signing up a brand new judge and bringing another one back.
Ahead of the US reality series' 15th season later this year, America's Got Talent confirmed its brand new line-up on social media, revealing a very exciting newcomer and the return of a familiar AGT face.
Unsurprisingly, Simon Cowell is back for the new season, with Howie Mandel alongside him. Also confirmed for the panel is previous judge Heidi Klum and AGT's resident newbie, Modern Family star Sofia Vergara.

Despite a successful Champions series and a brand new winner in Kodi Lee, America's Got Talent found itself caught up in controversy following the exit of Gabrielle Union last year.
After Gabrielle reportedly alerted the show's producers to an offensive comment made by guest star Jay Leno, and amid claims of a 'toxic culture' behind-the-scenes, she departed the series.
In a statement, US network NBC and producers Fremantle said: "America's Got Talent has a long history of inclusivity and diversity in both our talent and the acts championed by the show.
"The judging and host line-up has been regularly refreshed over the years and that is one of the reasons for AGT's enduring popularity. NBC and the producers take any issues on set seriously."
America's Got Talent airs on NBC in the US.
