It’s only February and there’s already an announcement for a new holiday movie coming to Hallmark! Did Christmas come early, or is this just the gift that keeps giving? I’ll go with both!

Kristin Chenoweth, known for her many roles across the stage, screen and television, has signed on for “The Christmas Song” alongside Scott Wolf (“Party of Five”, “The Night Shift”).

The film follows a youth choir director (Chenoweth) who needs to write a big song for a Christmas Eve show but is distracted when a boy with a golden voice (Kevin Quinn) joins her choir, which comes as a surprise to his widowed father (Wolf). If you’re familiar with Chenoweth’s voice then, much like me, you’re probably eager to hear her sing some carols in this film — she’s amazing!

“The Christmas Song”, penned by Nicole Baxter and directed by Eric Close, is slated to premiere sometime in November during the Countdown to Christmas lineup, which will also serve as the 10th anniversary of the beloved holiday programming event.

Stay merry!
