IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFETIME 

HOLIDAY SLATE

SECOND NON-HOLIDAY MOVIE IN DEVELOPMENT FOR 2022

Los Angeles, CA – March 3, 2021 – Lifetime announced today a two-picture deal with multimedia entertainment mogul Reba McEntire to star in and produce two movies for the network. The first of the projects will be Christmas In Tune (working title), which will be featured as a tentpole movie for the network’s annual holiday slate, It’s a Wonderful Lifetime. Christmas in Tune will also include an original holiday song by McEntire. Casting is currently underway and will film this spring.

The second film which will not be a holiday movie, is in development for 2022.

“Reba has been a creative force in both music and television for many years. We are thrilled to have her on board to produce and star in not just one – but two movies for us,” said Tanya Lopez, EVP of Movies, Limited Series & Original Movie Acquisitions, Lifetime and LMN. “Reba has been part of Lifetime’s air many years ago and we can’t wait to welcome her back!”

McEntire echoed Lopez’s sentiment stating, “I am thrilled to partner with Lifetime for a return to television movies! My fans and I enjoy their programming and loved watching the Reba show there for so many years.”

Christmas In Tune tells the story of Belle, a marketing executive who is worried she may lose her job. She decides to reunite a singing duo for a charity Christmas concert in order, but the problem is - the singers are actually her parents and they have not spoken to each other in years! Soon the at-odds couple is helping Belle get her life in order and she begins her own romantic duet with the new man in her life.

Christmas in Tune is written by Juliet Giglio and Keith Giglio and produced by Hartbreak Films with Paula Hart and Reba McEntire serving as executive producers.

McEntire has been an entertainment mainstay for more than 40 years. The Country Music Hall of Fame member and Kennedy Center Honoree is the recipient of 3 Grammy Awards, 16 Academy of Country Music Awards, 15 American Music Awards, 9 People’s Choice Awards, 6 Country Music Association Awards and countless other honors recognizing not only her outstanding entertainment achievements but also her philanthropic efforts. In addition to her music career, McEntire starred in 11 movies, captivated New York theater audiences with her critically acclaimed turn as Annie Oakley in Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun and is most well known for her Golden Globe nominated role as Reba Hart on the hit sitcom Reba, which she starred in and executive produced for 6 seasons on the WB Network. She also has successful brand partnerships with her clothing line at Dillard’s and western footwear collection with Justin Boots. Most recently, she launched her very first Spotify original podcast, Living & Learning with Reba McEntire, co-hosted by her former Reba TV show co-star, Melissa Peterman.

Storyline via Hallmark: Tess gets invited to be a part of a popular game show, but when the host is unexpectedly murdered, she and Detective Logan O'Connor seek to uncover who was behind it all.

Reviews:
🔎 "Crossword Mysteries "Riddle Me Dead" was wonderful! Loved every moment! The ending was perfect. It is family friendly as always. Not sure I would let kids watch murder mysteries though. This world we live in is traumatizing enough to little minds." ~kitkat

🔎 "Really enjoyed this new "Crossword Mysteries: Riddle Me Dead" - even more than "Terminal Descent." I loved the dynamic between Lacey Chabert and Brennan Elliott - with the addition of Jon Cor! It was fun to have this little love story in the background of this intriguing mystery. I would say it's a great family friendly mystery for ages 12 and up. I enjoyed the riddle aspect and trying to follow the clues to solve who-dun-it!" ~Net




🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎


Movie: MatchMaker Mysteries: The Art of the Kill

Premiere Date: Sunday, April 18, 2021

Starring: Danica McKellar, Victor Webster, and Bruce Boxleitner

Storyline via Hallmark: Angie Dove gets Det. Carter's attention by stumbling on a murder at an art museum. Angie's father Nick is on his own case, trying to solve a series of petty thefts at the museum.

Reviews:

🔎 "Matchmaker Mysteries: The Art of the Kill is family-friendly. Gave in and watched and I was actually surprised that it was good for families. Plot was fairly good. It wasn’t too hard to figure out the Whodunnit and why. Of course they tried their usual to distract you. I really liked how Bruce Boxleitner got to have his own mystery which *spoiler alert* sort of helped solve the bigger mystery. I hope this isn’t the last of the family-friendly Danica mysteries." ~Anonymous

🔎 "Anonymous, I have watched The Art Of The Kill twice and enjoyed it both times. Danica and Victor are a good match. Love them together! Have always enjoyed Bruce Boxleitner. The light-heartiness of this mystery is fun to see." ~kitkat

Please note: Typically, the mystery movies (due to some violence) are best suited for ages 12 and up. See reviews above. If you'd like to add a review, on whether a film is family-friendly, please share in comments below.

Fit for a Prince - a Hallmark Channel Original Movie starring Natalie Hall and Jonathan Keltz!

This movie is one of those in-between movies that doesn't necessarily fall under a particular season or holiday, so I decided to create a separate page for it. If you'd like to see the upcoming Spring Fling movies - click here.

NEW MOVIE PREMIERE

Premieres: Saturday, March 6, 2021 at 9pm/8c

Starring: Natalie Hall and Jonathan Keltz

Story-line via Hallmark: A promising seamstress designs dresses for a Charity Ball hoping to impress the royal guest. Though the dresses seem destined for disaster, the two still may manage to find their happily ever after.

Reviews:

👑 "Loved “Fit for a Prince” is One of my favorites!! Hallmark movie Fit For A Prince was Awesome! Great Acting from the cast of the movie Fit for a Prince" which was Hallmark's new royalty falls for commoner" ~ Anonymous


👑 "Anonymous, I agree with you! I loved everything about this movie. The chemistry between Natalie & Jonathan was wonderful! Looking forward to watching again tonight." ~kitkat


👑 "Fit for a Prince Although there’s nothing earth-shattering about Fit for a Prince, I was pleasantly surprised at how refreshing the script was. For one, characters within the movie was calling out common tropes in Hallmark movies and fairytales alike. Most of the time, it comes from Virginia. Even though she’s accustomed to an extravagant way of life because of her status, she doesn’t feel that it’s necessary. So, when she meets someone she likes, like Cindy, who isn’t from that world, she welcomes her with open arms and stands up to the bullies in the process." ~Anonymous




Please note: If you'd like to post a review on whether this movie is family-friendly, please share in comments below.

Since Natalie Hall has already played a princess in "A Winter Princess," it will be interesting to see her portray an ordinary citizen in "Fit for a Prince," who has a brush with royalty. Her co-star, Jonathan Keltz, however, previously portrayed royalty in "Once Upon a Prince."
