Bethenny Frankel to Star in Lifetime Movie 'Danger in the Dorm'

Bethenny Frankel is set to make her TV movie debut!

On Tuesday, the former Real Housewives of New York City star revealed that she is starring in an upcoming Lifetime TV thriller, Danger in the Dorm .

"Danger In The Dorm is about a complicated mother daughter relationship under extreme circumstances. I connected with this character, and with @claraalexandrova as my beautiful daughter and I am most grateful for the faith Lifetime put in me during this experience," Frankel wrote.

"The director @robin_hays was a gem, the crew was so warm and embraced me. Acting is a job that I have a newfound respect for and I hope I did this role justice. With Mother’s Day coming, make that extra effort to understand, have compassion for and connect with family, even under the most challenging of circumstances. It’s certainly not easy or everyone would do it. Mark your calendars… June 16th for the shocking premiere of my new movie #DangerInTheDorm only on @lifetimetv! #acting #motherdaughter #lifetimemovie #movie #adventure #actresseraunlocked."

Alongside the caption, Frankel shared a picture of the movie's official poster which features her and Clara Alexandrova looking out into the distance, with the silhouette of a hooded man in the background.

Danger in the Dorm premieres June 16 on Lifetime.
