Lifetime brings us yet another thriller to satisfy our curious minds. 'Fit to Kill', also called 'A Job to Die For', is scheduled to premiere on May 14, 2022. 

What makes this upcoming drop different from the rest? For starters, the plot is rather unusual. Ironically, landing one's dream job has its own deadly consequences in this mind-numbing thriller. A go-getter of a woman, Sadie (Revell Carpenter), who dreams of working in fashion gets a jumpstart on her career, as she gets the opportunity to work for a celebrity model-turned-fashion designer, Claudia (Maeve Quinlan). A long string of extreme outbursts and bizarre events in her new boss's life have her begin to question whether her so-called dream job is worth all the turmoil. The upcoming movie also stars Sarah Voigt (as Lynn) in a supporting role.
