On the heels of her return to the Disney family in “Freakier Friday,” the sequel to her 2003 hit film “Freaky Friday,” Lindsay Lohan has partnered with Hulu to bring “Count My Lies” to the small screen. As its star and executive producer, Lohan is set to adapt the Sophie Stava novel alongside former “This Is Us” executive producers and showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, who’ll also write the series. The pair collaborated with the streamer on two shows before this upcoming drama: “Love, Victor” and “How I Met Your Father.” Although the series has yet to get the green light for a full season order, it’ll ultimately mark Lohan’s first leading role on a TV show. She previously appeared on ABC’s “Ugly Betty” in a four-episode arc.
