Tim Matheson was elected as President Ronald Reagan and Cynthia Nixon as First Lady Nancy Reagan in the adaptation of the book of Bill O'Reilly Killing Reagan, for National Geographic Channel.
O'Reilly also author, will have a small role in the project, which at the moment it is not known what will be but the writer has stated it will be "great fun"
National Geographic Channel greenlit the adaptation of Killing Reagan last September and following its successful partnership with Scott Free Productions after the good audience that had adaptations Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy and Killing Jesus being her most watched space history channel, plus get Emmy nominations for Killing Kennedy in 2014 and Killing Jesus in 2015.
The filming of the miniseries will be held Atlanta to a premiere in late October, so that will be released just before the presidential election.
Killing Reagan will not focus on the attack against President Ronald Reagan in 1981 and perhaps its most prominent anecdote but as in the book will focus on the gradual decline of the powers of Reagan and bridled as Alzheimer's. In
addition there will also be mention of his "romances outside Hollywood,
his indifferent paternity disputes with his second wife, Nancy, and
multiple cases in which Reagan seemed to be all there."
