The queen of screams herself is taking charge. “Halloween” actress Jamie Lee Curtis is set to direct an episode of Fox’s horror-comedy series “Scream Queens,” Deadline reports. Curtis acts on the series as the caustic Dean Munsch.

This will mark Curtis’ first time directing an hour-long episode of a seres; she’d previously directed a music video and a 1992 episode of the half-hour sitcom “Anything But Love.”

Curtis is taking part in “Scream Queens” creator Ryan Murphy’s new Half Foundation Initiative. As Women and Hollywood previously reported, Murphy is committed to having 50 percent of all director gigs on his shows, which include “Scream Queens,” “American Crime Story” and “American Horror Story,” go to either women or minority candidates, which he defines as people of color or members of the LGBTQ community. His self-imposed deadline to achieve this goal is the end of 2016.

Curtis will direct the eighth episode of Season 2, which will air in November. As Deadline writes, Season 2 of the series “graduates from the college campus and into a hospital, the C.U.R.E. Institute, where some of the most fascinating and bizarre medical cases are under observation.”

Season 2 of “Scream Queens” is now airing on Fox.
