Bethenny Frankel is stepping out of her The Real Housewives of New York City shoes once again as she takes on a new acting role for Lifetime's Danger in the Dorm.
This is Frankel's first acting role in over ten years, though she has been on television during this time.
Her role as Jill in The Neighbors Episode 21 was her first acting role since the 1990s, and now she's back for a major movie appearance.
Bethenny Frankel to Star in Danger in the Dorm
Danger in the Dorm is a far cry from reality TV as it follows true crime novelist Ann Rule's story of the same name.
Bethenny Frankel is more than a former Housewife, though. She's a television personality, entrepreneur, author, and philanthropist.
