As production on the 18th season of FXX's Rob MacCharlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny DeVito-starring It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, we've been treated to another wonderful reminder that the cast is always kind enough to drop updates and teases, even when promoting their other projects.

Here's a look at the interview, with Day discussing "Always Sunny" (beginning at the 4:52 mark), followed by a look back some recent updates about the upcoming season:

Earlier this month, actor, writer, and executive producer David Hornsby and filmmaker Guillermo del Toro both confirmed on social media that they would be back this season. Hornsby complimented the artists who helped get him back into Matthew "Rickety Cricket" Mara mode in his post, while del Toro posted a close-up of himself, teasing: "Pappy is coming back" (a reference to his role as Pappy McPoyle). "We're right in the middle of the new season of 'Sunny' right now. I've got to go back tonight, and I'm going to film tomorrow. We have the McPoyles coming back, and we also have Guillermo del Toro coming back, reprising his role of Pappy McPoyle. It's going to be a great season," Day shared a week ago.

As for the season overall, Day believes Season 18 will build off the success of the previous season. "They're all fairly large episodes. But I feel like Season 17, we got a bit of our fastball back, and we brought back the same room and had the same chemistry. So Season 18 here, I think, is going to just pick up right where we left off. I can guarantee there will be some episodes that people will love," he added while speaking with Deadline Hollywood's SXSW Studio.
