First of all, Alison Sweeney signed a multi-picture deal with Hallmark Media. Included in Alison's deal is a new Hallmark Christmas movie titled: “A Magical Christmas Village.” She will star and an executive produce this new film, that will also star Luke Macfarlane (Moriah’s Lighthouse) and guest star Marlo Thomas.
According to Deadline, "Alison Sweeney will portray Summer, an architect living in a small town where she’s raising her young daughter Chloe (Maesa Nicholson, Dying for Chocolate: A Curious Caterer Mystery). When her mother Vivian (Thomas) finds herself in need of a place to live, her orderly life becomes a little less so after inviting Vivian to move in with them during this transition. Upon arrival, Vivian sets up an heirloom, miniature Christmas village resembling their town and tells Chloe it grants Christmas wishes. As Chloe begins setting up the figurines, real-life events seem to mimic the scenes she creates, including Summer’s chance meeting with Ryan (Macfarlane), a newcomer to their community."
My *Quick* Take:
I'm hoping Alison's deal with Hallmark means we will get more of the Hannah Swensen Mystery series; although, I'm not certain if Cameron Mathison is working with Hallmark any more, since he's moved over to Great American Family???
Alison's new Christmas movie, A Magical Christmas Village, sounds rather unique; I'll be curious to learn more about it as we get closer to it's premiere.
