Now thisis exciting.

A new report form In Touch Weekly claims that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newcomer and long-time actress, Lisa Rinna, has signed her contract to play none other than Kris Jenner in the O.J. Simpson American Crime Story.

According to In Touch, “Producers believe that Lisa is perfect to play the part of Kris in the cable production.” And we believe so too!

Previously, we reported that Nashville star, Connie Britton, will play Jenner's friend, Faye Resnick. Both ladies were friends of the late Nicole Brown Simpson, the former wife of O.J. Simpson. The historical murder trial will be the center of the cable special’s plot, produced by Glee producer, Ryan Murphy.

A source also claims that producers are excited for ”the publicity that will come from hiring Lisa.”

Following Rinna’s dramatic season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, it’s likely she’ll be excited to focus on her original love of acting.

Do you think Rinna will pull of playing Kris Jenner?
