Lifetime is reaching back into the headlines for The Bad Orphan, a psychological drama premiering on the network on Saturday (June 22).
Inspired by a true story, The Bad Orphan centers around a married couple who adopts an 8-year-old orphan with special needs. According to the movie description, the couple’s “ideas of a perfect family come into question when they discover that Gabby is a troubled little girl, and the family begins to believe things aren’t what they seem. As the unsettling behavior of their ‘child’ worsens and lies are uncovered, cracks in the family dynamic form with Jessica increasingly becoming concerned that adopted daughter Gabby is a threat to their family. Is Gabby just an innocent little girl? Or is there more to her story?”
The Bad Orphan stars Betsy Brandt, Chloe Coco Chapman, Mark Taylor and Eve Edwards. The movie was inspired by the real-life story of Natalia Grace, a Ukrainian-born orphan with dwarfism who was adopted by a married couple, accused of being an adult and later abandoned by the couple. Grace, now 20, shared her story in the Investigation Discovery documentary series, The Curious Case of Natalia Grace.
