US Weekly – Cooking up confusion. Mario Lopez just joined the long list of celebs who’ve portrayed KFC founder Colonel Sanders — and fans aren’t too sure how to feel.
“Colonel Sanders is adding some sabor to the menu…get your appetite ready… #FingerLickinGood #Lifetime #Dec13,” Lopez, 47, tweeted on Monday, December 7, alongside a poster for his upcoming mini-movie, A Recipe for Seduction.
The 15-minute branded program is set to premiere on Lifetime on Sunday, December 13, at 12 p.m. ET. Tessa Munro, Chad Doreck and Martin Mandela join Lopez in the short film. A synopsis on Lifetime’s website teases, “As the holidays near, an heiress (played by Bosch alum Justene Alpert) contends with the affections of a suitor handpicked by her mother. When the handsome chef arrives with his secret recipe and a dream, he sets in motion a series of events that unravel the mother’s plans.”
Mark your calendars because Lifetime and @KFC have partnered for a Lifetime Original Mini-Movie you don't want to miss! "A Recipe For Seduction" starring @MarioLopezviva premieres Sunday at 12PM. pic.twitter.com/nZJ2PXUR6G
