The Wall Street Journal has published a user’s guide to The Kennedys, an 8-part TV mini series that will premiere on the US Reelz Channel next month. Marilyn (played by Charlotte Sullivan) appears, albeit via flashback, in the penultimate episode:
EPISODE 7
It’s November 22, 1963—the last day of JFK’s life. He’s in Texas to meet with officials from the state’s Democratic Party. A flashback shows Jackie giving birth, but the baby soon dies. Another flashback shows Bobby visiting Marilyn Monroe to persuade her to end her affair with JFK. She is later found dead of a drug overdose. Back in the present, JFK and Jackie share a moment of mutual love while en route to Dallas, where Lee Harvey Oswald awaits with his rifle. As the motorcade passes through the streets, Oswald shoots, killing JFK. Afterward, Lyndon Johnson calls Bobby, demanding that he immediately be sworn in as President.
