There’s a lot we still don’t know about Alexandra, the mysterious villain at the heart of Netflix and Marvel’s superhero team-up show—but the third and last full trailer for the series is about exactly what you need to know about her: It’s Sigourney Goddamn Weaver getting to be evil as hell, and it’s delightful.

Despite the show being just less than a day away at this point, this new trailer has time for a lot of new footage of the series, ramping up Alexandra’s presence and threat so we can really start to get an inkling of why she demands that Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and the Iron Fist need to team up to stop her. Plus, it’s got Jessica ragging on Danny Rand, a consistent theme in all these trailers, and that’s always a good thing.

Bonus points for the trailer’s “menacing string section” actually being accompanied by footage of Alexandra listening to a menacing string quartet.

The Defenders hits Netflix tomorrow.
