Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig claimed they had scrapped their Lifetime movie after it was leaked to the press -- but was that all a ruse?

Months later, a billboard on Hollywood Boulevard has appeared promoting the TV movie, Deadly Adoption, with Wiig, Ferrell and former 90210 star Jessica Lowndes featured on the ad. The tagline: "The birth of a plan gone wrong."

While the premiere date is confusing on the billboard -- it says Sunday, June 20, when the 20th falls on a Saturday -- The Hollywood Reporter's source says the movie will air Saturday, June 20, on Lifetime.

According to multiple reports, Deadly Adoption has Ferrell and Wiig portraying a couple who care for a pregnant woman (Lowndes) in hopes of adopting her child once it's born. Needless to say (and according the title), things become deadly.

If it ever airs, the two-hour flick -- executive produced by Ferrell and Adam McKay's Gary Sanchez Productions -- is designed to be a "wink" at the network's drama genre and in celebration of the 25th anniversary of Lifetime's TV movie empire.

This wouldn't be the first time the Saturday Night Live alums have worked together. They had the star-studded audience laughing at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards when they presented together, and the two also starred in the comedic sequel,Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.
