Does KFC really have a recipe for seduction this holiday season?

KFC, Lifetime and Mario Lopez are serving a recipe for seduction.

While those classic herbs and spices are a mystery, is it a recipe for seduction? KFC has partnered with Lifetime and Mario Lopez to re-imagine the story behind the that iconic recipe. With a little intrigue and a lot of flavor, this food tale needs to be told.

KFC finds creative ways to make the holidays just a little more festive. Whether it is the KFC Firelog or the special Mother’s Day greetings, holiday celebrations are never boring with KFC.

Although KFC is known for revamping its Colonel portrayals, this year the brand has expanded beyond that traditional commercial. In partnership with Lifetime, the new holiday Lifetime Original Mini-Movie, “A Recipe for Seduction,” shows that food, love and betrayal make for tasty intrigue.

Staring Mario Lopez as Harland Sanders, this 15-minute movie might make you crave some KFC. Check out this preview clip.

Many people love curling up on the couch and watching Lifetime movies. Whether it is the perfect love story that makes people dream of the happily ever after or the distraction from the daily grind, that time on the couch is a great way to unwind.

Andrea Zahumensky, KFC U.S. CMO said, “we could all use a little distraction this holiday season, so why not fill some of your time at home with a suspenseful drama and the comfort of our world-famous fried chicken?”

“A Recipe for Seduction” shares how a handsome, young chef derails a mother’s plan for her heiress daughter. Whether it is the chef’s secret fried chicken recipe that entices the young girl or air of mystery, the holiday affair ignites. But will the flames burn brightly or will someone douse the love affair too soon?

Since a great movie deserves a feast, KFC is offering a special food delivery offer. Partnering with Uber Eats, a $20 or more purchase will come with six free extra crispy tenders. This special offer is available December 13 through December 19, while supplies last. Orders need to be placed via UberEats.com or the app. And, remember to chew quietly so that you don’t miss any of that spicy dialogue.

If you want to watch “A Recipe for Seduction,” it will debut on Lifetime, Sunday, December 13 at 12 p.m. ET/PT. Also, the mini-movie will be available on Lifetime’s streaming platforms.

What do you think of this new KFC movie idea? Could you see other brands creating food movies in the future?
