ER cast member John Stamos is taking on the role of murdered millionaire Andrew Kissel in Killing Mr. Kissel, a Lifetime movie. The actor will also produce the movie, which, like all good Lifetime originals, is based on a true story. Killing Mr. Kissel focuses on two wealthy brothers, played by Stamos and Anson Mount (as Rob Kissel), who are killed within a few years of one another. Prison Break's Robin Tunney is playing Rob Kissel's wife, Nancy. The real Nancy Kissel was convicted of her husband's murder in Hong Kong. Two men were charged with Andrew Kissel's murder in April. The family's story is certainly tragic enough to be a movie; Lifetime describes it as "the American dream that spiraled out of control."
