Sarah Michelle Gellar (L) to star in Ellen DeGeneres-produced limited seriesThriller time
rah Michelle Gellar has been roped-in to star in a limited series thriller Sometimes I Lie, produced by TV personality Ellen DeGeneres. This is her second scripted collaboration with Fox after dramedy Other People’s Houses.
The psychological thriller, based on former BBC journalist Alice Feeney’s novel by the same name, will follow Amber Reynolds (Gellar), who is in a coma and can’t remember how she got there. Sometimes I Lie traverses between her present, the week before her accident and a series of childhood diaries from 20 years ago.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button writer Robin Swicord will write the script. Swicord and Gellar will also executive produce it. The potential show will be Gellar’s regular role since she starred on comedy “The Crazy Ones”, which also featured Robin Williams. —PTI
