First on the roster is the tall drink of water, D.B. Woodside, and this woman couldn’t be extra enthusiastic about him headling a Lifetime flick.
The community does an exceptional job of centering ladies, telling genuine, impactful tales, and creating this lovely, artistic area and community to inform tales that resonate with us.
It’s a trademark of the community, pardon the pun. However that’s to not say that a few of Lifetime’s intriguing films aren’t additionally led by males.

We’ve seen numerous tales of fierce, protecting, and relentless moms trying to find their youngsters, however we’ll get the male perspective this time.
In a paternal position, Woodside is all the time pleasant. He had a pleasant run of it throughout 9-1-1: Lone Star earlier than his character relocated.

Rohm (Household Photos) will government produce and direct Spouse Stalker, which is able to star Pulliam.
The movie relies on Liv Constantine’s The Spouse Stalker, and the sequence all the time does nicely with its book-to-movie variations.
One other thrilling growth is that real-life married couple Grace and Traí Byers are starring on this one.
Sometimes, there’s one thing extra irritating than cute about real-life companions who share some initiatives. I can’t identify names right now.
However the Byers would be the exception to the rule.
Pulliam and Mr. Byers will star as married couple Joanna and Leo in a pleasant twist.
They look like the right couple with two youngsters, Evie (Alayna Bernard) and Aaron (AJ Bernard), and the best suburban life.
Nevertheless, it doesn’t take a lot for somebody to burst their bubble and expose all of the cracks and messy bits.
Piper (Mrs. Byers) is a newcomer in a city who owns a thriving wellness heart, however she’s removed from nicely when she turns her consideration towards a married Leo.
And Leo, nicely, he finds her attract irresistible and is prepared to danger all of it!
Joanna gained’t take her husband’s infidelity mendacity down (even when he in all probability is), and whereas she’s digging into the thriller of Piper’s life, she finds greater than sufficient details about this Black Widow with ulterior motives.
And Joanna refuses to permit her household to fall into Piper’s internet!
