27 May 2009 at 10:59 am

Variety is reporting that Dan Sackheim has signed a “two-year overall deal with 20th Century Fox TV”, and he’s joined Lie to Me as an executive producer. His credits include working on shows such as “House”, “Life”, “The X-Files”, and “Judging Amy”.

“Dan is one of those directors who not only does a great job directing episodes, but he’s a real partner to the executive producers and writers on a show,” said 20th chairman Gary Newman. “He’ll help create the consistency that we’re looking for throughout the season.”

“We think ‘Lie to Me’ has fantastic potential as a franchise and we’re putting the full support of the studio behind it,” Newman said.

Sackheim will be joining previously announced addition Shawn Ryan.
