The movie begins with the start of husband Bill Clinton's presidency and "will focus on Hillary's quest to fulfill her own high hopes and ambitions as she repeatedly faces humiliating personal setbacks," the network said. It ends with her election to the U.S. Senate.

A&E's chief programmer, Robert Debitetto tells the New York Post, "I can't think of a more emotional or relevant personal history or saga than that of Senator Clinton."

He said no casting decisions have been made on, for instance, the actress playing Monica Lewinsky, but producers have already talked with Sharon Stone about the title role, according to a source close to the production who spoke on condition of anonymity.

If you're going to cast an actress, how 'bout Rebecca DeMorney. She could be a double for Hillary.
