We have seen quite a few stories where babies have been switched at birth. Mostly, these stories create a comic effect, unless, of course, the implications are serious, like in ‘The Omen.’ Now, Lifetime’s movie, ‘Deadly Daughter Switch,’ brings us a thrilling tale, where the desire to hold a family together drives people to dangerous extremes.
As the title suggests, the movie revolves around two girls who were switched at birth. Brooke realizes that Hailey is not her biological daughter. This fact throws her family into chaos, especially when she finds out that Hailey was switched with her biological daughter, Breanne.
Brooke tries to keep her family intact, but Breanne’s mother, Alexis, realizes that her life is falling apart. She’s willing to go to any lengths to stop it from happening. The fascinating narrative is only enhanced by the setting of the tale. Thus, you might be curious about where ‘Deadly Daughter Switch’ has been filmed. We have covered that for you, and we will tell you about the significant cast members in the Lifetime movie.
Deadly Daughter Switch: Where Was it Filmed?
‘Deadly Daughter Switch’ was filmed primarily in Los Angeles, California. Going by the narrative, most of the action takes place in the houses of the respective families. Thus, a lot of the filming process comprises of interior shots.
A lot of projects choose to film in Los Angeles because of a stellar studio system and the availability of skilled professionals to aid in the production process. From a monetary point of view, this choice is pragmatic as well since filming within the city saves the cost of travel for cast and crew members, which would have to be borne if the movie were to be filmed elsewhere.
That said, most Lifetime movies avoid making the setting too specific. This allows the film to convey a sense of added dread that the horrors we see unfolding onscreen could very well happen in our vicinity.
