As announced on the FOX dance competition SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, Katie Holmes and Kenny Ortega will step in and judge the final four dancers this week.

Holmes made her Broadway debut in the revival of Arthur Miller's All My Sons in September 2008. In 2009, Holmes appeared in the National Memorial Day Concert on the Mall in Washington, D.C. in a dialogue with Dianne Wiest celebrating the life of an American veteran seriously wounded in Iraq, José Pequeño.

Over the course of his 30-year career, Emmy Award-winning director and choreographer Ortega has worked with superstars Madonna, the late Michael Jackson, Kiss, Cher, and Diana Ross. He choreographed the classic "Dirty Dancing" and, perhaps most famously, directed all three "High School Musical" films. The hugely successful trilogy has broken numerous records including "High School Musical 3: Senior Year's" record opening for a song-and-dance film grossing $42 million in its first weekend.

Tune in August 10th to see the pair on the show.
