Katie Holmes cast as Jackie O in mini-series

WHAAAAAAAAAAT?

Truth!  The stepford wife of Tom Cruise will be playing Jackie Kennedy in an eight hour long mini series called The Kennedys (unique title) that will air on The History Channel.

As per Variety, the mini series will also star Tom Wilkinson as Joe Kennedy Sr, Greg Kinnear as John F, and Barry Pepper as Robert.  No word yet on who’s been cast as Ted.

Not sure if strings were pulled (cough-Tom-cough), or if Katie had to audition, but pictures like the one at the left from a couple of years ago when she was rocking a bob and wearing oversized sunglasses probably helped.  She seemed to abandon the “look” as people kept comparing her to Victoria (Posh) Beckham.

I can actually see her pulling this off, you?
