Alison Sweeney to Direct an Episode of 'Days of our Lives'

Deidre Hall, Alison Sweeney and Lauren Koslow.

Alison Sweeney is returning to Days of our Lives — as a director.

Sweeney shared this photo on Twitter, with the caption: "Aww! It's like going home. So happy 2 b back in Salem - directing! Love visiting my peeps. @laurenkoslow @DeidreHall."

Sweeney wrapped up a 21-year run as Sami Brady on Days on May, but since the show tapes so far in advance, she continues to air as Sami.

Sweeney recently directed an episode of General Hospital, and has been invited to direct there again as well.
