Break out the tissues! Brandi Glanville is dipping her pedicured toes into the world of acting—in a Lifetime TV movie too!

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills on Bravo Tuesdays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

Instead of playing herself like she did on Beverly Hills 90210, the former model and current Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is taking on the role of Erica in the small-screen drama Missing at 17. She shared the news on Twitter:

Just found out my small part in the Lifetime Movie Missing at 17 comes out Oct 19 th, I'm not an actress so this should be interesting! :)

The TV movie, which marks Brandi's acting debut, follows a teenager who runs away from home to look for her biological mother but gets drawn into a world of danger along the way.

And yes, Lifetime is the same network that aired the TV movie where Brandi's ex Eddie Cibrian met—and started an affair with—his now-wife wife LeAnn Rimes.
