Based on true events, Gaslit by My Husband: The Morgan Metzer Story, airing on Lifetime on June 9, 2024, explores the dark tale of a woman deceived. The film stars Jana Kramer as Morgan Metzer, a woman assaulted by a masked intruder in her home, and her ex-husband, Rodney Metzer, played by Austin Nichols, who becomes the prime suspect when his story doesn’t add up.
Kramer, known for her roles in A Cowboy Christmas Romance and One Tree Hill, also serves as an executive producer on the film, and her real-life daughter, Jolie Rae Caussin, stars as her onscreen daughter, Amelia.
