We assume this is a piss take, because it's Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig for crying out load. The pair star in this upcoming made-for-TV movie for the Lifetime network in the U.S, which is renowned for their 'based on a true story' cringefests. You know the ones, they make it over to TV3 and the likes occasionally.

The movie is described as "a high-stakes dramatic thriller about a successful couple (Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig) who house and care for a pregnant woman (Jessica Lowndes) during the final months of her pregnancy with the hope of adopting her unborn child."

Of course things are not as they seem as we see from the trailer below, featuring the obligatory Lifetime movie scenes like Wiig holding a gun at the camera, and that calm picturesque white-picket-fence America backdrop.

It's satire gone to extreme, but if anyone can pull it off it's these guys.
