In her first TV series starring role, Lindsay Lohan (Mean Girls, Freakier Friday) is set to headline and executive produce the new series Count My Lies, a drama in development at Hulu.
The project, based on the recently published novel by Sophie Stava, comes from former This Is Us executive producers/co-showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger as well as 20th Television where the duo and their The Walk-Up Company are under an overall deal.
In Count My Lies, written by Aptaker and Berger, when compulsive liar Sloane Caraway fibs her way into a nanny position for the gorgeous and charismatic Violet and Jay Lockhart, it seems she’s finally landed her dream job. But little does Sloane know, she’s just entered a household brimming with secrets that are about to explode — with potentially catastrophic consequences for all.
Lohan is expected to play Violet. She executive produces alongside Aptaker, Berger and Scott Morgan of The Walk-Up Company. Stava is a producer. 20th Television, part of Disney TV Studios, is the studio.
This would mark Aptaker and Berger’s third series for the Disney streamer following Love, Victor and How I Met Your Father, both through 20th TV where they have been for 13 years.
Lohan has an even longer working history with Disney, as she began starring in movies for the studio back in 1998 with The Parent Trap.
She recently returned to the Walt Disney Studios for the upcoming Freakier Friday sequel, in theaters on August 8.
