Emmy-winner Jason Winer, who produces Modern Family and is the show’s former house director, just signed a new three-year deal with 20th Century Fox TV, Deadline reports. Winer has also directed episodes of New Girl, Don’t Trust the B, and is writing and directing for the upcoming NBC First Family sitcom 1600 Penn, which stars Josh Gad, Bill Pullman, and Jenna Elfman and debuts January 10th. He also directed last year’s poorly-received Arthur remake starring Russell Brand, which was his feature film debut, but on TV, Winer’s had nothing but success. Jason Winer’s new three-year Fox deal will see him building a production company at the studio, where he’ll be developing projects for himself and other writer/directors and continuing his plans for world comedy domination.
