2012
Limited Series
Drama, Romance
2 x 89'

In this sweeping drama, a privileged woman’s world collapses around her when she learns of her husband’s double life and dubious business dealings. She must now confront the "other wife."

Rebecca Kendall is blessed with beauty, talent, a splendid home, two wonderful daughters and a loving husband, Robert, who is often in Canada, where he runs a mining firm. After he dies in a plane crash, Rebecca learns that he invested everything they own in an unprofitable gold mine; and that he has a second wife, Natalie, and a young son.

Rebecca turns to her brother-in-law Martin for help, unaware that he is pursuing his own agenda ... When Rebecca finally speaks with Natalie, who claims part of Robert's estate, they gradually realize that they are both the "other wife" ...

The Other Wife features an all-star cast headed by Rupert Everett (THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST), Natalia Wörner (THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH), Hans-Werner Meyer (CONTERGAN) and John Hannah (FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL).
