Grant Gustin of Glee is set to star in Lifetime’s Movie

Glee’s Grant Gustin is ready to make a shift for Lifetime movie.

Gustin plays the role of bad boy Sebastian on the Fox musical dramedy. He has been tapped to star in the Lifetime telefilms, ‘A Mother’s Nightmare.’ He will be casted opposite to Annabeth Gish and Jessica Lowndes.

This new movie for Lifetime has been penned by Shelley Gillen. The story of this telepic revolves around Chris Stewart ( the role will be played by Gustin), who is a handsome and athletic 16-year-old guy who is depressed over his parent’s breakup and cheerleader girlfriend’s defection. As a new girl Vanessa (of 90210’s Lowndes) arrives, she uses her seductive wiles on Chris and accuses him of assault when he tried to keep away from this new relationship.

Gish will be playing the role of his mother.

Larry Gershman and Meyer Shwarzstein will be the executive producers. The film is set to begin production next week in West Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. An air date has not yet been determined.

For Gustin, the role marks his latest small-screen credit for the actor, who could potentially end up series regular on the fourth season of Glee.
