John Stamos will produce and star in the Lifetime movie "Killing Mr. Kissel," based on the true story of the murders of millionaire businessman Andrew Kissel and his brother.
"People are fascinated by the private lives of the rich, and there is a part of all of us that wants to have the lifestyle that money brings," said Tanya Lopez, senior vice president of Lifetime networks' original movies. "While entertaining, this story — about one family's quest for the American dream that spiraled out of control — also reminds us to be careful what you wish for."
Kissel's murder was front-page news in 2006 when his body was found at his Greenwich, Conn., home.
Kissel (Stamos) had recently been caught embezzling money and was going through a divorce, leading some to question if he had orchestrated his death himself.
Shockingly, just three years earlier, Kissel's brother, Robert, was murdered in Hong Kong when his wife drugged him and bludgeoned him to death. "Killing Mr. Kissel" is expected to premiere in November.Source: Daily News
