Lindsay Lohan will star in her debut TV show with a script.
The actress will play the lead in the drama Count My Lies, which Hulu is currently developing. The project, which is based on a Sophie Stava novel, is the brainchild of 20th Television and former This Is Us showrunners Elizabeth Berger and Isaac Aptaker. Lohan will serve as executive producer as well.
In Count My Lies, Sloane Caraway, a habitual liar, talks her way into a position as a nanny for Violet and Jay Lockhart, a charming and attractive couple. She appears to have finally landed her ideal job, according to the show’s logline. “However, Sloane is unaware that she has just entered a home full of secrets that are ready to blow up, with potentially disastrous results for everyone.”
