In a bit of, let’s say interesting casting, Lifetime is releasing a new mini movie and Mario Lopez will be playing Colonel Sanders in A Recipe For Seduction, which will premiere this Sunday on the network. Check out the trailer.

Here is the synopsis of the movie:

Presented by KFC and Lifetime. As the holidays draw near, a young heiress contends with the affections of a suitor handpicked by her mother. When the handsome chef, Harland Sanders, arrives with his secret fried chicken recipe and a dream, he sets in motion a series of events that unravels the mother’s devious plans. Will our plucky heiress escape to her wintry happily ever after with Harland at her side, or will she cave to the demands of family and duty?

The best part of this, is that he only says one line in the trailer and he doesn’t even attempt to do a Kentucky accent, this has to be a joke… right?
