Jodi Arias Case Hits Big Screen: Lifetime Movie "Jodi Arias: Dirty Little Secret" Premieres Next Week

The Jodi Arias murder trial is in its final stage as the jury began deliberations Friday after closing arguments. The jury, which has been in court since January, will resume deliberations Monday.

With an abundance of testimony about violence and, from Arias, details of a kinky sex life she says she shared with her husband, Alexander.

Now, a Lifetime movie titled, "Jodi Arias: Dirty Little Secret" may be the network's most disturbing film to date. A new teaser trailer just debuted online and instead of hiding the more graphic details, everything is being shown in HD. Details that came out in the months-long trial of Arias, who was convicted a few weeks ago of murdering her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander, in 2008, will all come alive on-screen in the Lifetime film.

During the trial, Arias pled self-defense, but jurors were convinced by the gruesome crime scene photos of Alexander with a bullet in his head, his throat slit, and bearing 27 stab wounds. Prosecutors portrayed it as a real-life "Fatal Attraction," with Arias stalking her ex and then seducing him one last time before she killed him. An integral part to the trial was a digital camera that investigators retrieved from the washing machine, which included racy, pornographic images of the couple before the murder. There were also images from after the murder, including one of Arias dragging Alexander's dead body across the floor.

The teaser shows flashes of these details, including a bloody Tania Raymonde ("Lost"), who plays Arias, dropping said camera into the washer. She also takes snapshots of Alexander in the shower. "That's it, I'm done," he says with a smile.

"Oh, come on. Just a couple more," she replies, as ominous music plays in the background. Then, the video shows brief glimpses of Arias stabbing Alexander, pulling on his legs, and firing a gun. The movie premieres next week, though it will most likely not include the outcome of the actual trial. Arias faces the death penalty in her pending trial.
