✨ Lacey Chabert Announces New 2026 Hallmark Christmas Movie Filming at *Walt Disney Land Resort * - Plus, See Lacey’s Costar & Story Details


Exciting Christmas movie news!

Not a creature was stirring.. not even a mouse! Well, in this case, it might be Mickey or Minnie Mouse!

During Hallmark's Christmas Experience program Saturday night, Lacey Chabert announced she is currently filming a new Hallmark Christmas movie for 2026 at Walt Disney Land Resort titled: "Holiday Ever After: A Disney World Wish Come True"!

See details from Lacey below (click arrow to watch) and keep scrolling to see Lacey's costar!




I had a hunch this Christmas movie might be Lacey's big news since seeing a post from DoctorDisney on Instagram a few days ago (see image below) and other postings from visitors at the Walt Disney Land Resort, who spotted Lacey Chabert filming, along with Travis Van Winkle (Project Christmas Wish).


Storyline: "Lindsey (Chabert) and her extended family head to Walt Disney World to spend a magical Christmas together, but the dream of a jolly holiday gets quickly dashed when Lindsey discovers her room is next door to Philip (Van Winkle), a disastrous first date she recently had, who’s also there on a family trip. As Lindsey and Philip’s paths cross throughout their stay, the frost starts to thaw as they learn they’re not so different from each other after all. Thanks to some Walt Disney World magic, the holiday wish Lindsey made in Cinderella Fountain just might turn their rivalry into romance."

Are you excited to see these two filming at a location that is considered to be one of the most magical places on earth? Please share in comments below!


Have a Merry, Joyful, 
Blessed Day!

"SECOND CHANCE LOVE" - New Hallmark+ Series





New Reality Show coming to Hallmark+...

Press Release via Hallmark Media:

HALLMARK MEDIA ANNOUNCES THAT MATTHEW LAWRENCE AND TLC'S CHILLI WILL HOST AN ALL-NEW, ORIGINAL SERIES "SECOND CHANCE LOVE"

THE UNSCRIPTED SERIES GIVES FIVE COUPLES A SECOND SHOT AT FIRST LOVE, HALLMARK STYLE AND WILL PREMIERE ON HALLMARK + JANUARY 1, 2026

If you had a second chance at love, would you take it? Hallmark Media announces Second Chance Love, an all-new, unscripted series that gives five couples, ranging from their 30's to 70's and who dated 5 to 40 years ago, a second chance to reconnect with the one who got away against the backdrop of a romantic Italian resort. The inspiring series comes from Critical Content and will premiere exclusively on Hallmark+ January 1st, 2026. It was shot on location in Sardinia, Italy.

Hosted by Matthew Lawrence (Boy Meets World) and Chilli (TLC), the real-life couple will guide five couples through an unforgettable journey. Together as hosts, the pair brings a deeply personal, authentic perspective to the series.

In Second Chance Love, five pairs of first loves reunite for a two-week journey filled with nostalgia, emotional reflection, and intimate dates. Led by our hosts, they revisit their pasts, confront unfinished business, and rediscover what once brought them together. As they build new memories and lean on each other for support, one big question remains: will they rekindle the spark they once had or discover that love belongs in the past? Told only in the way Hallmark can, with heartfelt emotion, authentic connection, and just a touch of magic, this new, original series is a celebration of second chances and the enduring power of love.

"Working with Hallmark is a dream come true because the brand represents good quality content. I've always been very specific about brand alignment because representation matters in every aspect of partnership." said Chilli, host of Second Chance Love. "I love what Hallmark stands for, and this project is special to Matthew and me for several reasons. As executive producers and hosts, we can't wait to share the inspiration behind the pursuit of true love."

"Studies show that nearly 80% of reunited first loves stay together for years, often for life." said David Stefanou, head of Unscripted Programming, Hallmark Media. "There's something undeniably powerful about a love that endures, even across time and distance. It's a theme that has defined so many of Hallmark's most cherished stories, and with Second Chance Love, we're bringing that magic into the real world. We're giving couples the chance to rediscover a connection that may have never truly faded."

Second Chance Love is created by Jonathan and Meredith Sinclair. The show is executive produced by Rob Lobl, Jonathan Sinclair, Meredith Sinclair, and Jonathan Singer. The series comes from Critical Content.

"When Calls the Heart" Renewed for Season 14 with Beloved Cast Member Returning




Even before the first episode of "When Calls the Heart" season 13 airs on January 4, 2026, Hallmark has confirmed via People that the beloved series has been renewed for Season 14 - coming in 2027!

In addition to that exciting news, a former "When Calls the Heart" cast member will be returning to the series - Lori Loughlin, as Abigail Stanton, for six episodes!

It has been nearly seven years since we've seen Lori as Abigail Stanton in Hope Valley since her final appearance in Season 6, when her last episode aired on March 10, 2019.

People has also confirmed more great news! "The show's core cast — including Erin Krakow, Kevin McGarry, Jack Wagner, Chris McNally, Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith — will also return for season 14."

Since Lori has been away, she's added other programs to her acting credits, including her reprisal of the role of Abigail Stanton, for two episodes of "When Hope Calls" on Great American Family in 2021. (I was personally hoping Lori might appear back in Brookfield, but that seems unlikely now with this return to WCTH.)

Abigail was the first friend that Elizabeth made upon arriving in Hope Valley, and losing her in season 6 left a noticeable void. Her return will surely restore some of the warmth and spirit of the show’s early years.

Filming for season 14 will begin next year - in 2026. Erin Krakow is currently 5 months pregnant; however, the cast typically films during the summer, so that shouldn't be an issue. Andrea Brooks (Dr. Faith Carter) has filmed many episodes for WCTH while expecting her children.

I can't wait to see old friendships rekindled, emotional storylines, and that familiar sense of community. I know I've certainly missed Abigail’s kindness, strength, and warm presence in Hope Valley. This is the comeback many of us Hearties have been been waiting and hoping for.


Hope this news 
adds joy to your day!

Storyline: "Alice (Boston), an emergency room doctor at a small, rural hospital, always volunteers to work the Christmas Eve overnight shift and goes the extra mile to make the holiday merry and bright for patients and staff. When the hospital gets snowed in, Alice and Brian (Penny), the newly hired top-rated cardiologist, find themselves in the middle of a bona fide baby boom when three women — including the only OBGYN for miles around — go into labor on the rarest birthday of the year. As they team up to bring these bundles of joy into the world as the night wears on, Alice, Brian, and the rest of the staff also work hard to make the holiday feel festive for all the patients. Though they may have different approaches to medicine — and to life — there's a spark between them, and by the end of their shift it's clear that this may be the Christmas Eve that changes them both forever."

When she learns that her late great aunt left her half of a cat café in upstate New York, she thinks it's the Christmas miracle she needed – as long as she can sell and close the deal before the holidays. Olivia's plan hits a bump in the road when she meets Dr. Ben Kane (Campbell), the veterinarian who owns the other half. The café serves an important role in the town – helping homeless cats find forever homes – and he has no intention of closing up shop. Christmas is the most important time of the year, as they plan many activities to help raise funds and get them into the black. Olivia and Ben strike a deal – she agrees to help him plan the fundraising events at the café over the next three weeks in exchange for Ben promising not to drag his heels on selling at the end of that time. Unless Ben notes, she ends up changing her mind – a lot can happen in three weeks, after all. As they work together and a spark between them grows, Olivia becomes part of the neighborhood, gains an appreciation for the café's adorable feline inhabitants and what it means to Ben, as well as to the entire community. And when she learns the surprising reason her great aunt opened the café in the first place, that just might be the cat-alyst for change that will give them all a Merry Christmas."
