Louisiana’s largest daily newspaper, The Advocate, recently announced that production had begun in New Iberia for an upcoming Lifetime holiday movie, tentatively titled “Christmas on the River”. The festive flick will star former “One Tree Hill” star-turned-Country singer, Jana Kramer and Percy Daggs III from “Veronica Mars”.

Kramer’s character returns home to New Iberia for Christmas and attends the 50th annual Christmas Sugarcane Festival, where a young woman and man are traditionally crowned ‘King’ and ‘Queen’ of the event each year. For the milestone anniversary, all former ‘royalty’ return to celebrate — including Kramer and Daggs’ characters, which launches a holiday love story.

Earlier this month, BroadwayWorld.com announced the possibility that an adaptation of the classic Charles Dickens’ tale, “A Christmas Carol”, would be coming to the Broadway stage this holiday season — and now, it’s official!

If you’ve been following this holiday blog along for awhile, then you might remember reading about the upcoming holiday rom-com “Last Christmas” — starring Henry Golding (“Crazy Rich Asians”) and Emilia Clarke (HBO’s “Game of Thrones”), and co-starring Michelle Yeoh and Emma Thompson.

Official Synopsis: Kate (Emilia Clarke) harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop. Tom (Henry Golding) seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart … and you gotta have faith.
