Martha Kent To Play Hillary Clinton In NBC's "Hillary".

If you ever sat there and looked at Hillary Clinton and thought "Man, Dianne Lane would give a really good portrayal as here, they look a lot alike and everything!" well, you weren't the only one, because NBC thinks that too.

At the Television Critics Association's summer-press tour, among many other high-profile mini-series NBC is developing such as "Rosemary Baby", "Tommyknockers", and something called "Plymouth", it was revealed Dianne Lane would portray former First Lady Hillary Clinton in a 4-hour miniseries.

Greenblatt noted the deal for the Clinton biopic just closed and casting has yet to begin for an actor to play Bill Clinton. While the former secretary of state is likely to announce her candidacy for president, Greenblatt said the mini will likely air before then -- avoiding concerns about offering about equal time to her potential Republican challenger. 

"She's not going to declare her candidacy for two more years, so I think it will be the late spring or early summer of '15 that she will declare," Greenblatt told reporters. "This could well have aired before that. We have to talk through all that." 

More on the series:

Hilary will be written and directed by Frozen River's Courtney Hunt and will recount Clinton's life as a wife, mother, politician and cabinet member from 1998 to the present. The script will begin with Clinton living in the White House as her husband is serving the second of his two terms as president. It will include her likely run for president. Busted Shark's Sherryl Clark will executive produce alongside James D. Stern (Looper). Greenblatt told reporters following his presentation that the former first lady hadn't yet heard of the project. (The project comes almost 10 years after Greenblatt opted to air CBS' controversial mini The Reagans during his tenure at Showtime.)

An actor has yet to be cast for the role of Bill Clinton; but I think we all know who it should be:
