Hello, movie friends! As Christmas in July will soon be coming to an end, there have been some wonderful Christmas movie images released lately for Hallmark and Great American Family's upcoming 2023 Christmas movie season - that I wanted to be certain you've seen.
First up is A Biltmore Christmas, starring Bethany Joy Lenz and Kristoffer Polaha, which is filled with classic elegance, the glow of Christmas, and a hint of nostalgia, as Kristoffer stands in between two worlds - black and white and color.
Note: The official key art/poster has not been released yet, but will surely be a version of this image...

I'm also captivated by many of the photos that have been released for A Biltmore Christmas, as I'm typically quite taken when it comes to vintage, retro-type films set in a different time period.
A Biltmore Christmas synopsis: Lucy Hardgrove (Joy Lenz) is a screenwriter who lands the job of a lifetime when she’s hired to pen the script for a remake of the beloved holiday movie, His Merry Wife! First filmed in 1947 at the beautiful, historic Biltmore House, it has long been considered a Christmas classic. When the head of the studio isn’t satisfied with the ending Lucy wrote because it deviates from the original’s feel-good conclusion, he sends Lucy to Biltmore Estate for research and inspiration. While there, she unwittingly discovers the ability to travel to the 1947 set of His Merry Wife! through the help of an hourglass. After shaking off the initial shock of this turn of events, Lucy embraces this as her chance to uncover the truth about the movie’s original ending. While on set, she and Jack Huston (Kristoffer Polaha), one of the film’s stars, spend time together and become close. But her sudden appearance has set off a chain of events that put the production in jeopardy. Before she can return to the present, Lucy must make things right or threaten to alter the future forever.
A sneak-peek video for A Biltmore Christmas has been playing throughout *Christmas in July* on the Hallmark Channel, but in case you missed it or you'd just like to watch it again, here it is...
Speaking of sneak peeks, in case you missed it, here is the new sneak peek of the Haul Out the Holly sequel, starring Lacey Chabert and Wes Brown, that was played recently during the special encore airing of the original film.

Great American Family has also released some wonderful images via Parade for their upcoming Christmas movie, Blessings of Christmas, starring Lori Loughlin and James Tupper.
(The first one we've seen, but the rest are new!)
Blessings of Christmas synopsis: Renowned TV star Mandy Gilmore (Lori Loughlin) says goodbye to her hit culinary series, A World of Food, with plans to travel the globe dining in all 142 Michelin-starred restaurants. Before jetting to Paris, Mandy stops in Milwaukee for a simple transaction: to hand over the deed to her deceased aunt’s food pantry, Angel’s Fare, which was recently purchased by adjacent business owner, Adam Carraway (James Tupper). Things change when pantry volunteer, Otto Nessen (Jesse Hutch) reminds all that Aunt Susie’s love of cooking was truly her love of feeding and inspires one more holiday feast for those who need it most.
Jesse Hutch posted the image of himself (below) from the set of Blessings of Christmas. He said he believes we viewers will find his character to be... "fun, quirky, and mysterious."
Here's also a promo of 'Twas the Text Before Christmas, starring Merritt Patterson and Trevor Donovan, coming this holiday season to Great American Christmas...
Also, be sure to look for a new promo for Jill Wagner and Paul Greene's Christmas movie, which is currently airing on Great American Family during random commercial breaks.
I sincerely hope you have enjoyed these Christmas images and videos!
Happy Christmas in July!!!
