It's no secret that Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig are one of the best comedic pairs 'Saturday Night Live' could possibly create. The pair has also starred in the comedy miniseries 'The Spoils of Babylon' and were hilarious when they presented the Best Actress Award at this year's Golden Globes.
Fans were understandably excited when news broke out that Ferrell and Wiig will appear in a Lifetime movie together. However, the news went viral on April Fools' Day and Ferrell was quick to issue a statement that the film has been cancelled due to the leakage.
Despite what the 'Elf' star has declared, the movie appears to be set for release on June 20. A large billboard has been erected on Hollywood Boulevard to confirm the rumors.
Twitter users were quick to share pictures of the billboard.

'A Deadly Adoption' is about a couple (Ferrell and Wiig) that decides to take care of a young pregnant woman (Jessica Lowndes). In the course of their care, things start to take an unusual turn.
Ferrell joined 'Saturday Night Live' in 1995 and stayed for seven years. He has appeared in several movies like 'Old School,' 'Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy,' 'Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby' and 'Blades of Glory.' Ferrell's most recent project is the 2015 comedy 'Daddy's Home,' which is scheduled for release on Christmas Day.
