Two of television's most beautiful actors are set to star as one of America's most beautiful political couples, as Parks and Recreation's Rob Lowe and Once Upon a Time's Ginnifer Goodwin have signed on to portray President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy in National Geographic’s forthcoming telepic Killing Kennedy, a factual drama based on the novel by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard.
The drama is the latest adaptation of Bill O'Reilly's collection of best-sellers, following Killing Lincoln, which premiered earlier this year to 3.4 million viewers. The film is expected to debut this year, timed with the 50th anniversary of JFK's assassination. According to The Hollywood Reporter, production will begin in June in Richmond, Va., while Lowe and Goodwin are on hiatus from their respective series. Michelle Trachtenberg will also take on her first Russian-speaking role as Marina Oswald.
