The miniseries will be based on Andrew Neiderman’s novel “Garden of Shadows”, which serves as a prequel to V.C. Andrews’ bestselling Dollanganger series.

Here’s the full cast list:

Jemima Rooper and Max star as Olivia Winfield and Malcolm Foxworth, parents to Corrine and grandparents to Cathy and Chris Dollanganger.

Kelsey Grammer is Malcolm’s illustrious father, Garland; Harry Hamlin is Olivia’s beloved father; Paul will star as John Amos, Olivia’s cousin whose revelations change her life forever; and Kate Mulgrew is Mrs. Steiner, Malcolm’s loyal house manager and head of the Foxworth Hall staff.

Alana Boden will play Garland Foxworth’s new wife, Alicia and Hannah Dodd has been cast as Olivia’s daughter, Corinne; while T’Shan Williams plays Foxworth Hall’s longtime staff member and Olivia’s observant housekeeper, Nella, and Callum Kerr is Christopher, a close relative of the Foxworth family whose life will be eternally intertwined with Corrine’s from the moment they set eyes on each other.

Flowers in the Attic: The Origin will serve as a prequel to Lifetime’s previous Flowers franchise movies – Flowers in the Attic, Petals on the Wind and Seeds of Yesterday.

The miniseries will center on Olivia Winfield, a headstrong and determined woman working alongside her father when she finds herself unexpectedly courted by Malcolm Foxworth, one of the nation’s most eligible bachelors.

After a whirlwind romance, Olivia “finds herself as the mistress of the imposing Foxworth Hall, where she soon discovers that the fairytale life she expected has quickly become a nightmare.”

Beneath Malcolm’s debonair exterior “lies a dark heart, and a twisted evil lurks inside Foxworth Hall that will threaten Olivia’s happiness and that of her children.” Olivia’s efforts to protect her family will force her to become the most terrifying version of herself, resulting in the “inevitable — and notorious — decision to lock her grandchildren in the attic.”

The film will also include the talents of Luke Fetherston, Buck Braithwaite, Jordan Peters, Evelyn Miller, Rawdat Quadri, Emmanuel Ogunjinmi, David Witts, Carla Woodcock and Peter Bramhill.
