By  | 

Variety reports that Sid will play Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis in the upcoming Muse Entertainment miniseries The Kennedys: After Camelot.

The four-hour miniseries, a sequel to 2011’s The Kennedys, follows Jacqueline Kennedy (Katie Holmes), Ted Kennedy (Matthew Perry), and the rest of the Kennedy family after President Kennedy’s assassination in 1963. Sid plays Onassis, who married Jackie Kennedy in 1968.

The Kennedys: After Camelot is expected to premiere spring 2017 on Reelz Channel.

Mel started a fan site for Siddig in 1996, as a way to learn HTML and to promote his charitable endeavors. In 1998, he proposed that it become his official fan site; she quickly agreed and a long-distance friendship was born. You can reach Mel at mel[at]sidcity[dot]net.
