Bryan Cranston's schedule shows no signs of slowing down any time soon as the "Breaking Bad" star has committed to solving a murder mystery in "Home Again," according to Hollywood.com.

Cranston will also adapt and direct the film based on the novel by David Wiltse, which follows a retired FBI agent who moves with his wife and son back to his small hometown in Nebraska. When someone is brutally murdered, the lawman springs back into action, though now with the cynical outlook that you can't, indeed, go "Home Again."

This isn't Cranston's first time behind the camera -- he's directed a few episodes of both "Breaking Bad" and his previous television series, "Malcolm in the Middle," as well as the 1999 indie drama, "Last Chance," which starred himself and Tim Thomerson.

Bryan Cranston was seen earlier this year in "The Lincoln Lawyer" and "Larry Crowne" and will next be seen in Steven Soderbergh's "Contagion," opening Sept. 9, and in "Drive," opening one week later. 2012 will truly be the Year of Cranston, however, as he'll appear in "Red Tails," "John Carter," "Rock of Ages," "Total Recall," "Argo," "World War Z" and probably a few others we don't even know about yet.

Which is, of course, awesome, because Bryan Cranston should be in every movie.

Due to his commitment to the "Breaking Bad" shooting schedule (and about six hundred other things), Cranston won't be able to start production on "Home Again" until sometime next year.
