The next season of the popular television series "iZombie" will not be arriving until next year, but fans of the show are getting a glimpse of what's in store for its fourth season. The first look comes in the form of a photo of the protagonist Liv Moore (Rose McIver) dressed as a rich haughty dowager. Apparently, the brain eater will be enjoying the brain of a rich widow in one of the upcoming season's episodes.

The sneak peek was taken from the second episode of season 4, where Moore will be chowing down on the brain of a rich murder victim named Sandra Brinks.

The dowager victim was hated by everyone who worked at the golf course where she spent her time, as well as her very own staff. This could potentially complicate Moore's job of helping figure out who the victim's killer is.

Unfortunately, fans will have to wait until next year to find out how their favorite brain eater solves this puzzle.

The CW renewed the series for a fourth season in May but has yet to announce the exact date of its return.

During the finale of the third season, the city of Seattle became the zombie capital of the United States after the existence of zombies was revealed to the public. This set up some very interesting new dynamics that will be explored in the upcoming season.

According to McIver, the new plot will have very interesting parallels to the political landscape of the real world right now.

"It's sort of an authoritarian dictatorship, which obviously she doesn't respond to, but she also knows that zombies and humans co-existing is an incredible stretch," McIver told ComicBook.com earlier this year. "How do we find a way that makes everybody feel safe, that makes nobody feel marginalized? It's so on-point politically right now, it's something I'm really proud to be a part of that in a comedy, zombie, fun show, still kind of is making comment about how we treat other and how we respond to having to coexist and tolerate and understand each other's opinions."
