Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix is set to join Meagan Good in a new Lifetime movie.
Madix, 37 – who’s been dealing with the fallout from the end of her nine-year-relationship from Tom Sandoval, 39, following his cheating scandal – will star in Buying Back My Daughter, according to Deadline.
The plot of the movie follows a mother who finds her missing teenage daughter is being sex trafficked on an escort website.
Madix will play the role of police officer Karen, who helps to investigate the case, with which she has a personal connection.
The movie – which is currently filming – will also star Roger Cross and Faith Wright.

Buying Back My Daughter is directed by Troy Scott and written by Barbara Marshall. The film is produced by Front Street Pictures and Charles Cooper.
Madix also has plenty of screen time on the new Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules, which started airing before it was reported that Sandoval was cheating on Madix with co-star Raquel Leviss, 28.
It brought about the demise of their long-term relationship, with the split being dubbed ‘Scandoval.’
Bravo has captured the fallout from the drama, which will be shown on the second part of the current season.
It comes after Madix threw some major shade at Raquel on Tuesday. The reality TV beauty was spotted out on a coffee run with a friend when she was asked if Leviss had apologized to her since the news broke.
She fired back: ‘I don’t know who you’re talking about.’
Leviss and Sandoval’s ‘full blown love affair’ was exposed earlier this month to the shock of Madix, who has since ended her romance with the restaurateur.
She broke her silence on the matter last week in a lengthy Instagram post, where she admitted to being ‘devastated and broken’ but grateful for her supporters.

As to how Madix has been holding up, she insisted that she’s been doing ‘good’ despite Sandoval’s betrayal.
Madix recently made her first statement after learning about the affair, which sent shockwaves across the internet.
The reality star took to Instagram last Wednesday to share a stunning snap of herself with a lengthy caption addressing the scandal while thanking her friends including her castmates for their support during what she described as her ‘darkest hours.’
She wrote: ‘hi. where to begin? i want to express my most sincere gratitude for the outpouring of love and support i have received from friends, family, and people i’ve never even met in the last two weeks.
‘when i have felt like i couldn’t even stand, you all have given me the strength to continue and seen me through my darkest hours. to say i have been devastated and broken is an understatement. however, i know that i am not in this alone.’
Madix continued: so many of my closest friends are also grieving this loss right now and reeling from this betrayal on so many levels. i am so f***ing lucky to have the best support system in the world and i hope i can repay every single person for the love you have shown me.
‘what doesn’t kill me better run. love, ariana’
