HALLMARK ANNOUNCES NEW PICTURE PERFECT MYSTERY IN JUNE!


Hallmark Press Release:

ALEXA AND CARLOS PENAVEGA TEAM UP
AND STAR TOGETHER IN
'PICTURE PERFECT MYSTERIES: NEWLYWED AND DEAD,'
A NEW ORIGINAL PREMIERING JUNE 16
ON HALLMARK MOVIES & MYSTERIES

STUDIO CITY, CA – May 1, 2019 – Alexa PenaVega (Spy Kids franchise) and real-life husband Carlos PenaVega (“Big Time Rush,”) star in “Picture Perfect Mysteries: Newlywed and Dead” a new original premiering Sunday, June 16, (9 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.

Small-town New England professional wedding photographer Allie Adams (Alexa PenaVega) finds herself directly in the middle of a murder mystery when the groom, the son in a prominent and wealthy local family, is suddenly shot and killed during the ceremonial first dance. Suspicion immediately turns towards Allie’s big brother Greg (Jon Cor, “Love on Safari”), the long-time ex-boyfriend of the bride, and Allie begins her own amateur investigation to clear Greg’s name. As she pours over the hundreds of photographs for possible suspects, Allie tries to help the newest Detective on the force Sam (Carlos PenaVega), as they hunt for both the killer and the missing murder weapon. When the list of possible suspects grows, Allie and Sam continue to bump into each other as they follow a multitude of leads, and Sam reluctantly accepts Allie’s help, as she has a real knack for spotting missing details. As the killer continues to hide in plain sight and allegations towards Allie’s brother increase, Allie helps Sam not only personally by helping him adjust to a small-town farmhouse and way of life from the hustle of New York City with a thoughtful gift, but uses her pictures and investigative prowess to help him solve the town’s biggest mystery before the killer can strike again.

“Picture Perfect Mysteries” is a Crown Media Productions, LLC production. Jim Wilberger, Alexa PenaVega and Carlos PenaVega are executive producers. Vicki Sotheran and Greg Malcolm are the producers. Ron Oliver directed from the teleplay written by Walter Klenhard and Marcy Holland with the story by Klenhard.

More Hallmark Movie News- including Christmas!

image: Hallmark Channel instagram

Pictured above, from the set of "Wedding at Graceland," is Eric Close ("Christmas in the Air), director of the Graceland films, Priscilla Presley, who was married to Elvis, and will have a cameo role in the new Graceland movie, and Kellie Pickler and Wes Brown, who are reprising their roles from the previous film.

CommercialAppeal.com unveiled in an article - that two members from the Graceland crew, production coordinator, Trey Fox, and Julie Lighty, production supervisor - were married on the Graceland set, after filming took place for the fictional wedding of Laurel (Kellie Pickler) and Clay (Wes Brown) in "Wedding at Graceland." Of course, "Wedding at Graceland" is a sequel to the well known, "Christmas at Graceland," which premiered during the 2018 Christmas Season and held the highest ratings of ALL Hallmark movies for the year!

It was also revealed that the bride and groom previously worked together this year on the set of another new Hallmark Christmas movie, "Where Angels Land."

UPDATE: I've learned from a friend - "When Angels Land" was the original working title for "The Christmas Song" starring Scott Wolf and Kristin Chenoweth.

The article also disclosed an important detail on the upcoming Christmas at Graceland II movie. According to
CommercialAppeal.com... the new Graceland movie coming this Christmas is "not another sequel, but a new romance with new characters." Isn't that interesting - I can't help but wonder which musical talents will visit Graceland this year for Christmas!

As for this Friday night's Hallmark Christmas movie... Please be sure to Note: the Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel have also been moved an hour later - just like the new movie premieres! If you are used to seeing them begin at 8, they will now start at 9. And, for those of you in the central time zone, who used to watch at 7, the time will now be 8!

Both Christmas films airing this week, "Return to Christmas Creek" and "Reunited at Christmas," have the same warm feeling of coming home, returning to the ones we love, and reuniting, not only with family, but with precious memories from the past!


I'll be Marking the 25th with "Return to Christmas Creek" on April 25th & "Reunited at Christmas" on April 26th! We are now 8 months until Christmas day! Do you plan to watch these movies to Mark the 25th or will you be watching something else? Please share in comments below!

Wishing You All the Joy of Christmas!
Merry "Mark the 25th" Day, Everyone!
