Selma Blair is about to make like Kris Jenner.

No, she isn’t gonna pimp out Kylie Jenner or exploit the Bruce Jenner sex change in order to boost ratings for her family’s reality show.

But the actress is going to literally make like Kris Jenner for an upcoming television program.

Blair will portray the famous mother/manager on FX’s American Crime Story: The People V OJ Simpson, a drama that will chronicle the 1994 case of Simpson.

He was on trial at the time for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman.

Jenner was married back then to Simpson’s lawyer, the late Robert Kardashian (who will played by Friends star David Schwimmer). She was also friends with Brown.

Blair joins a cast that also includes John Travolta (as Robert Shapiro), Cuba Gooding Jr. (as O.J. Simpson), Connie Britton (as Faye Resnick), Jordana Brewster (as Denise Brown) and Sarah Paulson (as Marcia Clark).

Simpson was somehow found Not Guilty of murdering Brown and Goldman; but, incredibly, was later convicted of armed robbery in Las Vegas and will likely spend the rest of his life in jail.

American Crime Story: The People V OJ Simpson will premiere in 2016.
