John Stamos ('ER') and Robin Tunney ('The Mentalist') Star in the Lifetime Original Movie 'The Two Mr. Kissels,' Premiering Saturday, November 15

Based on the Shocking True Story of the Deaths of Two Multi-Millionaire Brothers and the Trail of Money, Mansions and Mayhem They Left Behind

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23 -- John Stamos ("ER") and Robin Tunney ("The Mentalist") star in the Lifetime Original Movie "The Two Mr. Kissels," based on the shocking true story of two multi-millionaire brothers who both married the women of their dreams and wound up dead. "The Two Mr. Kissels" premieres on Saturday, November 15, at 9PM (ET/PT) on Lifetime Television.

In "The Two Mr. Kissels," real estate mogul Andrew Kissel (Stamos) marries sporty blond ski instructor, Hayley Wolff (Gretchen Egolf, "Journeyman"), while his younger brother Rob Kissel (Anson Mount, "Conviction"), a New York investment banker, marries social climber Nancy Keeshin (Robin Tunney). On the surface, it seems that both the Kissel brothers are starting idyllic families. After Rob moves his family to Hong Kong for a promotion, Nancy grows to resent his long work hours. In retaliation, Nancy begins a torrid affair and ultimately kills Rob by drugging him and bludgeoning him to death, igniting worldwide media frenzy. Years later, Andrew is caught embezzling millions of dollars to support his increasingly lavish lifestyle and drug addiction. With the courts breathing down his neck, former business partners turning on him, and a frustrated and embarrassed wife filing for divorce, Andrew is found dead in the basement of his Greenwich mansion. The question remains: was Andrew murdered by one of his many enemies, or did he arrange it himself in order to escape his living nightmare?

"The Two Mr. Kissels" is produced by Dairy Road Productions, Inc. and Dan Wigutow Productions, Inc. for Lifetime Television. Dan Wigutow (Lifetime's "Murder on Pleasant Drive," "Revenge of the Middle-Aged Woman") served as executive producer, John Stamos ("Martin and Lewis," "The Beach Boys: An American Family") produced and Michael Scott (Lifetime's "Tell Me No Lies" and "Murder on Pleasant Drive") co-executive produced. Ed Bianchi ("Mad Men," "Deadwood") directed from a script written by Maria Nation (Lifetime's "The Tenth Circle," "Icebound").
