Matthew Broderick is going to pay a visit to "Modern Family". The actor, who won a Tony Award for his role in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", is set to guest star as a "neurotic" guy who is the new friend of Phil (Ty Burrell).

No further details are available about his character and there's still no word on when the episode will air. The "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" star joins Greg Kinnear, Ellen Barkin, Minnie Driver, Kevin Hart, Philip Baker Hall and Nathan Lane who have all been slated to appear in the fourth season of the Emmy-winning comedy.

Broderick has previously guest starred on "30 Rock" and "Louie", and most recently lent his voice for an episode of animated show "Adventure Time". His wife, Sarah Jessica Parker, is also heading back to small screen with a recurring role on "Glee".

"Modern Family" season 4 will kick off Wednesday, September 26 at 9 P.M. ET on ABC.
