Cranston, who most recently directed an episode of ABC’s Modern Family, will helm an episode titled “Work Bus,” scheduled to air Oct. 18. The Office becomes the latest series that Cranston has directed, including episodes of his own shows, Breaking Bad and Malcolm in the Middle.
“Free meth for The Office! (look who’s directing…),” Office co-star Rainn Wilson announced via Twitter, posting the photo of the duo seen above.
The Office returns at 9 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 20, on NBC.
