Janel Moloney of "The West Wing" will star in a CBS movie about Amber Frey, the former mistress of murderer Scott Peterson.
The film is based on her recent book Witness: The Amber Frey Story.
Moloney, a two-time Emmy nominee for her work as White House aide Donna Moss on "The West Wing," will begin shooting the film next month in Vancouver. No air date has been set.
Frey, a massage therapist and single mother from Fresno, Calif., was the star prosecution witness in the case against Peterson, who was convicted of killing his wife, Laci, and her unborn fetus.
Jurors in Redwood City, Calif., sent Peterson to Death Row in December.
Frey has said she was unaware Peterson was married during their affair, which overlapped with Laci Peterson's disappearance.
