Football, Disney World, and time travel are on Hallmark’s Christmas calendar this year, with holiday romance arriving before the trick-or-treaters. Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story premieres Saturday, Oct. 17, at 8 pm on Hallmark Channel as part of its 17th annual Countdown to Christmas.
The Chicago Bears take their turn in the holiday spotlight after Hallmark’s previous romances featuring the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills. Lyndsy Fonseca and Robert Buckley lead the cast, joined by Marsha Mason, Barbara Alyn Woods, and Khary Payton. Hallmark announced that the production would film entirely in and around Chicago. The movie will also stream the following day on Hallmark+.
Thanksgiving weekend brings Lacey Chabert to Walt Disney World in Holiday Ever After: A Disney World Wish Come True, premiering Saturday, Nov. 28, at 8 pm. Chabert stars opposite Travis Van Winkle, with Richard Kind and Christy Carlson Romano among the supporting cast.
Then comes a Christmas getaway with a considerably bigger scheduling problem. In A Grand Biltmore Christmas, premiering Saturday, Dec. 5, at 8 pm, a reunion at a Christmas gala sends Elizabeth from 1915 into the present day. Holland Roden and Niall Matter star alongside Andie MacDowell and Jonathan Frakes in a story involving a magical hourglass, a family vacation, and a choice between two very different futures. The movie streams the next day on Hallmark+.
