Being Human alumna Kristen Hager has been cast opposite Matthew Perry and Katie Holmes in Reelz miniseries The Kennedys: After Camelot, the network’s follow-up to its 2011 mini The Kennedys. The four-hour project is set to air in spring 2017.
Hager will play Joan Kennedy, the beautiful blond wife of Ted Kennedy (Perry).
