EXCLUSIVE: Lifetime has greenlit two new original ‘Ripped from the Headlines’ movies for 2025 including the Dascha Polanco-led (Orange is the New Black, Poker Face) thriller Terror Comes Knocking: The Marcela Borges Story and Girl in the Garage: The Laura Cowan Story starring Paige Hurd (Power Book II: Ghost), Brad James (Shirley) and Stephen Bishop (Moneyball).

In Terror Comes Knocking: The Marcela Borges Story, Marcela Borges (Polanco) and her growing family’s idyllic weekend quickly turn into every family’s worst nightmare when masked gunmen barge into their Florida suburban home.

With gunshots piercing their walls, a newly pregnant Marcela, her husband, and their young son are left with no choice but to comply with their captors’ demands: surrender $200,000 or their lives.

But with no means of accessing that sort of money, Marcela faces insurmountable odds to protect her family from their violent captors and must make the life and death decisions to keep her family safe.
