What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? is a 1991 ABC television film starring real-life sisters Lynn Redgrave as Baby Jane Hudson and Vanessa Redgrave as Blanche Hudson.

It was directed by David Greene and adapted for the small screen by Brian Taggert, based on the novel What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? by Henry Farrell, and the 1962 theatrical movie What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? starring Bette Davis as Jane and Joan Crawford as Blanche.

The film was adapted to contemporary times, with Blanche's film success taking place in the 1960s instead of the 1930s. Her films were being rediscovered on home video instead of television reruns. Jane had been a child film star (replacing the original's Vaudeville success), though her films were unavailable, leading to her jealousy.
