Variety exclusively reported today that Lindsay Lohan will make her return to acting this holiday season with a leading role in a yet-to-be-titled Netflix original movie.

In the Christmas-themed rom-com, Lohan will play a “newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress” (according to the logline), who gets amnesia after a skiing accident and “finds herself in the care of a handsome, blue-collar lodge owner and his precocious daughter in the days leading up to Christmas.” The rest of the cast has not yet been announced.

Netflix has been building on their library of original holiday films over the past few years, including: “Jingle Jangle,” “A Christmas Prince,” “The Christmas Chronicles” and “The Princess Switch” starring another former Disney-darling, Vanessa Hudgens.

I can’t wait to get more information on her movie! Are you excited for her acting comeback?

Stay merry!

Silver Screens Events

IMPORTANT UPDATE (8/27/20): There was a post on the Fall Into Christmas Instagram page a few weeks ago considering postponing the event until 2021 due to current events, but that post has since disappeared — as well as the official Facebook page. The event holders announced today that the convention has officially been postponed until 2021 and has been renamed Spring Into Christmas!

Read their statement by clicking here.

We began seeing posts on social media late last fall regarding an upcoming Christmas in July convention that would happen during the summer of 2020—fast forward a few months and there’s a lineup of great celebrity guests as well as a major date change!

The Christmas in July convention is now Silver Screens Events’ Fall Into Christmas Convention, which will take place from October 2nd-4th* at the Sheraton Music City Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. The event organizers made an announcement this week that due to feedback and the current global COVID-19 health crisis, they felt it to be a wise decision to move the event to the fall.

There’s a lot to look forward to—from professional photo-ops with your favorite Christmas movie stars to contests, celebrity Q&A sessions, parties, games, and a special evening Christmas banquet!

Here’s hoping things are looking much more positive around the world come October.

Check out the list of celebrity guests scheduled to appear below!

Today, Netflix’s official See What’s Next Twitter account announced that Kat Graham and Alexander Ludwig have teamed up for a brand new movie that’s coming to the streaming service in 2020.

Graham and Ludwig will co-lead “Operation Christmas Drop”, named after the Christmastime airlift partly conducted from Andersen Air Force Base, as as a congressional aide and a U.S. Air Force captain who clash when she’s asked to shut down the tropical U.S. Air Force base he calls home.

For a little bit of background on what Operation Christmas Drop means; it’s a tradition that serves as a training mission for the U.S. Air Force which started in 1952. It has since become the longest running U.S. Department of Defense mission in full operation, and the longest running humanitarian airlift in the world. Supported by the local communities of Guam, it is primarily conducted from Andersen Air Force Base and Yokota Air Base, and targets Micronesia. (Source: Wikipedia)

I’ll keep you posted on more information as we get closer to the release.

Stay merry!

I love Christmas surprises in May, especially when it’s as fun as this one!

Hilarie Burton revealed on her Instagram yesterday that she’s working on another Christmas movie for the Lifetime network, titled “A Christmas Wish”, with her friends Tyler Hilton and Megan Park.

It’s actually another mini “One Tree Hill” reunion; Burton and Hilton starred as Peyton Sawyer and Chris Keller, respectively, on the former long-running hit drama. Last year the two co-starred in Lifetime’s “The Christmas Contract”, which featured many more of their former OTH co-stars.

It was quite the holiday treat!

98 Degrees is coming to a city near you to celebrate Christmas! Nick Lachey, his brother Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons and Justin Jeffre promoted their reunion album “Let it Snow” after its release during the 2017 holiday season and clearly had so much fun that they’re ready to hit the road again.

The At Christmas Tour 2018 kicks off on November 1st and runs through December 21st, and Nick Lachey spoke exclusively with PEOPLE about their eagerness to spread some cheer with songs of the season. “The songs just put you in a great spirit and I think the audience feels the same way,” he said. “It’s why we love to do stuff like this around the holidays. It just puts us in a great spirit and gets you ready for a very special time of year.”

As I am reading my Facebook feed I am instantly reminded by Countdown to Christmas that we are 208 days away from Christmas and so I am going to keep this short and sweet.. I am so excited and overwhelmed at the same time!

It has been very hot and humid here on the East Coast so it the worst month for focusing on Christmas… I have had to really move into the “spirit”.  I’ve been organizing my decorations (getting more of those Martha Stewart organizing labels), watching Christmas movies, chatting with my friends on Facebook that love Christmas as much as I do, and listening to Christmas music.  I am excited though, I just got another coupon mailer from the Hallmark Store for Father’s Day and I KNOW that the next one will be for the Hallmark Ornament Premiere in July.   I also just finished going through the Hallmark Ornament Dreambook for 2012;  I picked out  some adorable ornaments; some will be released in July but most won’t be available until the unveiling in October; here is the link for the book so you can pick yours!
