After rocking TV ratings charts with original films like ‘Robin Roberts Presents: Stolen by My Mother: The Kamiyah Mobley Story’ (Niecey Nash), ‘Chris Watts: Confessions of a Killer’ (Ashley Williams), ‘The Long Island Serial Killer: A Mother’s Hunt for Justice’ (Kim Delaney), and more for its true crime franchise ‘Ripped from the Headlines,’ Lifetime is rolling out its next themed thriller of that vein via the Meagan Good-led ‘Death Saved My Life.’
Produced by Jarrett Creative, the Seth Jarrett-directed film tackles the topic of women and “pseudo-suicide” – the phenomenon of faking one’s death (often to escape perilous conditions).
Ahead of the movie’s premiere next Saturday (February 13), look inside to see its inviting trailer.
Official plot:
“On the surface it seems Jade (Meagan Good) has it all, a successful marketing career, a husband admired and respected in the community, and a young daughter they both dote on. But behind closed doors, her life is far from idyllic. Her husband Ed (Chiké Okonkwo) is a controlling man who is physically and psychologically abusive. When Jade decides to leave Ed, he tells her “If I can’t have you, nobody will,” a threat which becomes very real when she discovers he has hired someone to kill her. Knowing no one will believe her, Jade realizes the only way to escape Ed is to make him believe the hitman completed the job and that she is dead. La’Myia Good plays Jade’s sister Leigh.”
‘Death Saved My Life’ premieres February 13 at 8/7c only on Lifetime.
