On April Fools’ Day, it was revealed that Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig would star in a top secret Lifetime movie called A Deadly Adoption. Although initially assumed to be an elaborate April 1st ruse, it was later confirmed that Ferrell’s film, a send-up of the made-for-TV thrillers that the cable network pumps out on a yearly basis, was scheduled to premiere this summer to celebrate Lifetime’s 25th anniversary. However, after the secret plans for the two-hour TV movie leaked out, Ferrell and Wiig have instead decided to “forego the project entirely.”
