Cheesy, romantic and often very predictable – the ultimate recipe for the perfect Christmas film and what’s more, Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries will air 34 new original flicks this holiday season.

Although details are being kept under-wraps, here’s what we know so far.

Hallmark Channel will unveil 22 of the 34 movies, whilst sister network HMM will air the last dozen. Starting on Hallmark Channel on October 27 as part of it Countdown to Christmas we can expect too see familiar faces including Danica McKellar, who last year anchored Coming Home for Christmas.

Below is the official trailer for Hallmark Countdown to Christmas 2018.

On November 4th HMM starts its “Most Wonderful Movies of Christmas” campaign and will see Kellie Martin starring in a HMM’s tentatively titled Vet, which is being described as “an emotional story of heroism and homecoming.”

Can’t wait until October? Neither can we! so get your calendars marked for the halfway mark to Xmas as HMM will launch it’s Gold Crown Christmas block from June 29th to July 28th AND Hallmark’s Keepsake Christmas will once again begin on July 6th until July 15th. Both channels like last year will feature re-airing of their respective original Christmas movies.

Hallmark Christmas Movies update!

Hallmark have just announced that music icon LeAnn Rimes will star in “It’s Christmas Eve” and just to add some icing to the Christmas cake she’s also written three beautiful songs for the film, 2 of which she performs in the movie: the title song, “It’s Christmas Eve” and “You And Me And Christmas.”

Wonder if she’ll jump up onto the bar to sing one of her songs – as she did in “Coyote Ugly”? Roll on Christmas!!

We’re ready to snuggle up on the sofa and not leave until we’ve see them all!
