These first stills from the upcoming Britney Spears Lifetime biopic are, to be frank, a hate crime. pic.twitter.com/BkfyA3t9l5

I know Britney had some rough times, but the casting for her Lifetime movie is a travesty. pic.twitter.com/aoTALTR1t3

If Britney Spears survived 2007, somehow we'll make it through this first look at her Lifetime biopic https://t.co/icvmWPxeD0

We can't wait for the movie to actually premiere and see all of this glorious cheesiness in action. The flick, currently titled "Britney," is set to premiere on Lifetime sometime in 2017.
