Sick Note was created and written by Nat Saunders and James Serafinowicz, and directed by Matt Lipsey (Little Britain, Psychoville). The series follows Daniel Glass, played by Grint, who's a compulsive liar lost in a bad relationship and even worse insurance job. He's wrongly diagnosed with a terminal illness by his doctor Ian Glennis, played by Frost, who convinces him to hide the truth from his family, friends and colleagues. Season two sees Lohan taking on the role of Katerina West, the daughter of Glass' boss, Kenny West, who's played by Johnson.

"We are extremely excited about this show since watching the first season we could not stop laughing," said Scott Carlsen, Lohan's manager. "Sky has been so amazing to work with alongside the producers, writers and the director of the show. Lindsay saw episode one and was hooked, we told them we were up for it and a few weeks later we started shooting. She loves being back on set filming again, you can really see her passion shine through. We have a lot planned for the year so keep your eyes peeled"
