Tim Allen will make his feature directorial debut with the comedy 'Crazy on the Outside', according to Variety.
Allen will also star in the independent film, along with Ray Liotta, Carrie-Anne Moss, Julie Bowen and Kelsey Grammer.
Written by Judd Pillot and John Peaslee, the adult-themed comedy stars Allen as a parolee who finds life outside a prison cell to be much crazier once he enters his quirky sister's world.
Allen recently wrapped on two films, the David Mamet-directed 'Redbelt' and the comedy 'The Six Wives of Henry Lefay'.
He's currently filming the voice of Buzz Lightyear for 'Toy Story 3', which is due for release in 2010.
Filming on 'Crazy on the Outside' is scheduled to begin later this month in Los Angeles.
