Colonel Sanders is getting some extra television screen time with the help of an unlikely collaboration.
What We Know:
- KFC and Lifetime have announced a partnership to create a holiday mini-movie. According to CNN, the two are teaming up to create a 15-minute short film titled, “A Recipe for Seduction.” The short film will star Mario Lopez as this iconic company symbol and founder of KFC, Colonel Sanders.
- The story of the film is being described as a holiday love affair involving a young heiress whose mother has arranged for her marriage. “But when a handsome, young chef with a secret fried chicken recipe and a dream arrives, he sets in motion a series of events that unravel the mother’s devious plans,” the duo revealed in a press release.
- You can’t watch a movie without snacks, so KFC is also collaborating with the Uber Eats app to offer a special promotion to support the film. From December 13th-19th, viewers can get six extra crispy tenders with their $20 purchase.
-
“A Recipe for Seduction” premieres on Lifetime at 12pm on Sunday, December 13th, 2020. It will also be available for streaming on Lifetime’s website as well as the Lifetime app and video-on-demand platforms.
We’re excited to see the Colonel take on romance, holiday cheer, and fried chicken. Are you tuning in?
