The spiritual successor to last year’s Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy is based on book of the same name by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard and follows both Kennedy and Oswald during the key events leading to that fateful day on November 22nd 1963.

Kennedy is in Washington, D.C., announcing his presidential candidacy, while Lee Harvey Oswald finds himself in the U.S. embassy in Moscow, renouncing his U.S. citizenship. These two events start both men, one a member of one of the United States’ most wealthy and powerful families, the other a disillusioned former Marine and Marxist, on a cataclysmic track that would alter the course of history Throughout we see their highs and lows, culminating in not one but two shocking deaths that stunned the nation. Scott Free Production is producing the drama, which was adapted by Kelly Masterson, and stars Rob Lowe, Ginnifer Goodwin, Will Rothhaar and Michelle Trachtenberg. Nelson McCormick (The West Wing) directed the TV movite, with David Zucker, Mary Lisio, Howard T. Owens, Noel Siegel, Charlie Parsons, Richard E.
