Melissa Joan Hart and La La Anthony are set to star in a new Lifetime movie that delves into the controversial topic of conservatorships. The film, titled Bad Guardian, follows the story of a court-appointed guardianship that takes a dark turn, shedding light on the potential harms of such arrangements.
The plot revolves around Leigh (played by Hart) and her father Jason (portrayed by Eric Pierpoint). When Jason suffers a fall and is assigned a guardian named Janet (played by Anthony), things quickly spiral out of control. Janet assumes full control over Jason's life, placing him in a nursing home, selling off his assets, and neglecting his health needs.
