Fans of Vanderpump Rules will soon get to see Tom Sandoval flex his acting skills in a thriller set to air on Lifetime.
According to the BravoTV website, the bar owner and cover band frontman will appear in “Tall, Dark and Dangerous”– an original movie that follows a woman who thinks she’s met the perfect guy on a dating app, only to find out the man of her dreams has stolen the identity of his roommate.
Given the role Sandoval played in last year’s Scandoval, it would make sense for the platform-shoe aficionado to play the role of the deceitful love interest in the upcoming movie; however, he was actually cast to play the roommate in the Lifetime film.
While Sandoval undoubtedly considers himself to be the one and only star of the film, the cast includes actual actors Eric Roberts, Michael Paré and Jackée Harry, to name a few.
Sandoval has shockingly managed to score himself a handful of small acting roles over the years, including a spot in 2021’s LMN film “The Wrong Real Estate Agent” (foreshadow, much?!) and “23 Minutes to Sunrise,” a 2012 film that starred Sandoval’s then-girlfriend Kristen Doute.
The news of Sandoval’s latest acting gig comes just months after his ex and ‘Vanderpump Rules’ co-star Ariana Madix co-starred alongside Meagan Good in “Buying Back My Daughter,” which aired on Lifetime in October.
‘Tall, Dark and Dangerous’ is set to air February 8; meanwhile, fans can watch Sandoval and the rest of the ‘Vanderpump Rules’ cast when they return for Season 11 on January 30.

Actually, I love this. He’s always wanted to act, maybe it will help him feel less stressed.
