Tue, Jul 9, 2002 04:24 PM PDT
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - The Lifetime Network announced today that Megan Mullally ("Will & Grace") and British actress Juliet Stevenson will co-star in "The Pact," a Lifetime Original movie about teen suicide.
Mullally will play Melanie Gold, the mother of a teenage girl who kills herself in a suicide pact with her boyfriend. The boyfriend, Chris Harte, survives, and Mullally's character lashes out at him and his family. Complicating matters is the fact that his mother, Gus Harte, is Melanie's lifelong friend.
The movie is based on Jodi Picoult's novel, and is directed by Oscar-winner Peter Werner ("We Were the Mulvaneys," "Bucket of Blood" ). It is produced by Randwell Productions in association with Hearst Entertainment for Lifetime Television.

I'm looking foward to seeing this even if the storyline isn't overly original but Megan is a fantasic actress and shoud avoid slipping into the melodramatics that are so commonly seen in depressing Lifetime movies.
