At last, good news for Katie Holmes and the cast and crew of The Kennedys!
The Hollywood Reporter confirms, after the History Channel eighty-sixed the controversial, $30 million miniseries about the political dynasty three weeks ago, fledgling cable network ReelzChannel will premiere the epic April 3.
Starring Greg Kinnear as John F. Kennedy and Holmes as First Lady Jackie Kennedy, the ambitious miniseries. The History Channel's first planned foray into scripted drama was dumped by History in early January following reported pressure from the famous family.
A network rep said, We have concluded this dramatic interpretation is not a fit for the History brand.
Although approached by producers, Showtime, Starz and FX all declined to pick up the miniseries in the wake of History's ouster.
