Get ready! Courtney Love will soon be in your living room.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Courtney is set to star in an upcoming Lifetime movie about the Menendez Brothers. She will play Kitty Menendez, the mother of Lyle and Erik, who rose to infamy after killing her and her entertainment executive husband, Jose Menendez, in 1989.

The untitled project, written by Abdi Nazemain and directed by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbara, will focus on the sexual abuse Lyle and Erik suffered at the hands of their father, while their mother turned a blind eye.

Though she is best know as the lead singer of Hole, Courtney has a long list of acting creds, and was even nominated for a Golden Globe award.

Casting for brothers Erik and Lyle is currently underway, and the film is scheduled to begin shooting this month in Vancouver.
