While on a much-needed vacation with her family after filming back-to-back movies for Great American Family, Danica McKellar took to social media today to reveal who her co-stars are in her upcoming Great American Autumn movie, "Swing Into Romance."
Danica will be reuniting with actor David Hadyn-Jones (A Bramble House Christmas, Dear Santa) once again! The two previously starred together in the sweet Hallmark movie, "My Christmas Dream," back in 2016!
David responded to Danica on IG with this comment, "Utter joy Danica!! So hope the fun play dance and kindness comes through on the screen!! Infinite thanks to you and Gleb for this challenge."
Even their "My Christmas Dream" co-star, Christian Convery, who played the young boy Cooper in the film, responded with "Amazing!!!🎉🎉❤️
Also joining Danica McKellar and David Hadyn-Jones, is Gleb Savchenko (pictured on the right above), a professional dancer from "Dancing with the Stars."
Storyline for "Swing Into Romance" via Great American Media:
"In Swing Into Romance, when former dancer Christine Sims (McKellar) temporarily returns to her hometown in time for the town’s Fall Festival, she discovers her family’s General Store is in trouble. In her efforts to save the business, Christine will need to dust off those dancing shoes one more time, face her ex-fiancé, and maybe even find love."
Danica also shared several more pictures with her co-stars from their Autumn-themed movie...
David Haydn-Jones shared this image with Danica McKellar and their young co-star, Taya Messier (When Hope Calls, A Merry Christmas Wish), who plays David's daughter in the movie.
Danica explained the major drop of pictures from her movie was made just in case the actors vote to strike today. If they decide to strike, she felt she might not be able to share any images from the film or promote her movie, which she stated is expected to premiere on Great American Family in September.
In addition to recognizing her co-star, David Hadyn-Jones, for taking on this challenge of learning an entire "Dancing With the Stars" level jive routine, Danica also gave shouts out to several people, including her husband, Scott Sveslosky, for creating the original story idea for "Swing Into Romance" and Marcy Holland for writing the script. She also gave her gratitude to Great American Family, Bill Abbott (CEO of Great American Media), producing partners Brad Krevoy & Amy Krell, director Bradley Walsh, film producer with Hideaway Pictures, David Anselmo, and several of her film co-stars, including Gleb Savchenko, who she thanked for his "coaching and patience in bringing out the dancer in me."
Plus, Danica shared a behind-the-scenes dancing video with Gleb Savchenko...
Did any of you guess Danica's co-star was David Hadyn-Jones? After seeing the commercial recently where they showed Danica dancing with her co-star (who was only seen from behind), I actually said to my family, "You know, that kind of looked like David Hadyn-Jones from Bramble House." However, I wasn't quite sure enough to share that guess publicly. I mean, that clip is a pretty quick flash and all. But, it is sort of fun to think, YAY! I got it!
Be sure to look for "Swing Into Romance" this September on Great American Family!

Yikes! David Haydn Jones dancing with Danica McKellar in blue dress
ReplyDeleteWow! That dance video is 🔥
ReplyDeleteGreat job Net in guessing it was David. I saw that commercial and had zero idea.
I’m curious to see how the fall theme is incorporated into this movie.
I check David Haydn Jones’ IG
ReplyDeleteHe has 3 pictures from Swinging into Romance

Oh my gosh!! This movie sounds sounds amazing! I love David Haydn-Jones. He and Danica were so good in My Christmas Dream together! Love that movie! Really looking forward to this one!!
ReplyDeleteAwww, this is all so sweet!! -Maria
ReplyDeleteYay! I am so excited for this movie! But, I am worried bout that srike! Any word on that?

Misty, Latest I've heard is that the talks are failing and the strike is looming. Not good news, so far. :(

SAG-AFTRA Calls History-Making Strike as Talks With Studios Collapse
DeleteThe development will likely bring all remaining U.S. union physical production to a halt as Hollywood's writers also continue their work stoppage
At a moment when Hollywood’s writers remain on strike, members of performers’ union SAG-AFTRA will soon be mounting their own picket lines, constituting the first “double strike” involving both actors and scribes since 1960
DeleteIs a guy in the picture is Danica McKellar’s on screen Dad ion Swinging into Romance?
ReplyDeleteThat would be my guess. The man is Actor Neil Crone, of "When Hope Calls." I just loved him as the hotel owner in that series.
DeletePlus, the little girl in the photo above, Taya Messier, is from "When Hope Calls," too.
Blessings, Net

I wonder if Sasha Farber is in the movie

If this continues, I hope that GAF will think of ways to have us help spread the word about the movie!
ReplyDeleteMisty
I knew he had made a movie, because he suddenly came back to Instagram and had mentioned a movie in the last week or so, but no details.
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful news.
I am trying so hard to guess all the new movies leading up to Oct 20th. There are 11 saturdays starting Aug 5th leading up to Oct 21. I think the GAF responded to me on fb saying something about 2 fall movies. Maybe they just meant 2 have been announced. But if this movie is in Sept, there would have to at least be 3 fall movies. I do wonder how the actors strike will affect this.
ReplyDeleteThis movie looks so exciting :) Love both actors.

Same here…I think I saw 10 Truths About Love (could be called something different) in the summer promo, so add that as the 5th summer movie (maybe everyone had that one already). Can’t nail down any additional autumn/fall movies just yet, although I’ve been scouring the internet for clues (maybe Net knows more). We’ve got 10 Christmas movies confirmed for GAF, but some big names haven’t been mentioned or confirmed (Dan Payne) yet like Daniel Lissing, Cindy Busby, Sam Page (although he stars with Rachel Leigh Cook in an upcoming movie, just not sure which network/streaming service), and so many others. Assuming some of those are the 11 left of Christmas movies, but with the strike, who knows what will happen now. Either way, I’m definitely excited for the movies. They all sound great! ~ Debbie
Delete*Please correct any wrong information! :-)
Debbie, Those are the names I'm keeping on my radar, as well, plus Jessica Lowndes, Jesse Metcalfe, Cameron Mathison, Jennifer Freeman, etc... There are a lot of possibilities! I think fans would love to see Daniel Lissing and Jessica Lowndes paired together again - since they were wonderful together in "A December Bride."
DeleteAnd yes, that is the Reel One Entertainment movie, "10 Truths About Love" (fishing scene) in the *New Movie Starting August 5th* promo.
Hopefully, they were able to film most of their Christmas movies before the strike.
Blessings, Net
Another single father, won't be watching. Pah!
ReplyDeleteThe vast majority of Christmas movies have already been filmed - Florence
Love this!
