The Female Villains Wiki

Angela Muir (Anja Savcic) is the hidden villainess of the 2016 Lifetime film Who Killed My Husband? (Alternately titled Under Fire).

Angela was the former receptionist of Cybercash, a digital currency company. She went on to marry Ryan Muir, one of the three owners of the company. It was no secret, however, that her relationship with the socially awkward Ryan was motivated by his wealth. Secretly, however, Angela was having an affair with another Cybercash founder, Noah Hays. Together, the two embezzled money from the company under the noses of the other owners, using Ryan's account to do so.

When they discovered that detective Douglas Howell was investigating them, Noah shot and killed him. The villainous duo did the same thing to Ryan when he uncovered their scheme and threatened to go to the police, with Noah killing him by rigging his car to explode. Angela put on a show of heartache over Ryan's death, but soon came back to work and angrily demanded Ben Doughty (another co-founder of Cybercash) for a check for Ryan's shares, causing a scene at the office.

After discovering that new employee Sophie Howell was an undercover detective investigating Cybercash (and the wife of Douglas), Angela plotted with Noah to stop her, with their attempts culminating in Noah kidnapping Sophia's teenage stepdaughter Chloe and holding her captive at a junkyard. Angela's villainous reveal came after Sophie subdued Noah in a hand-to-hand fight and had Chloe run away, as Angela soon stepped out of the shadows holding the girl at gunpoint. She and Sophie aimed their guns at each other, with Sophie pointing out the mistakes she and Noah had made that led Sophie to uncover her secret. Angela sarcastically congratulated Sophie on catching her and admitted that she and Noah had become too greedy before betraying her accomplice, killing him with a bullet to the chest. She then prepared to kill Sophie and Chloe when Charles Gagnon, a private investigator Ryan had hired before his death to investigate Cybercash and who had been keeping an eye on Sophie, arrived and shot Angela in the hand, causing her to drop her gun. Angela growled in pain and rage over her failure as both Sophie and Charles hold at her gunpoint, and she was later arrested.
