Hallmark’s ‘A Nashville Christmas Carol’ Reimagines Classic Story, With Country Twist
So imagine if Dicken’s A Christmas Carol took place in Nashville, and some of your favorite country stars were the angels? Then, you would have Hallmark’s A Nashville Christmas Carol!
This upcoming Countdown To Christmas movie stars Jessy Schram (Amazing Winter Romance) and Wes Brown (Check Inn To Christmas). Oh, we mentioned some country stars! They include: Wynnona Judd, Kix Brooks, RaeLynn, Sara Evans!
What do we know about this country reimagining of the classic Christmas tale?
What Is Hallmark’s A Nashville Christmas Carol About?
According to the Hallmark press release, Vivienne Wake (Schram) has found herself in a very unenviable position. She is a tv producer, and Vivienne has a big Christmas special coming out. This is a big deal to her because she may be heading to L.A. soon. This is the big job that she has always dreamed of getting. But, things get complicated for the workaholic producer.
This special features an up and coming performer, Alexis (Raelynn). But, the special has some baggage, in the way of her childhood sweetheart, Gavin Chase (Brown). He manages headliner, Belinda (Evans).
Then, the ghost of her recently deceased mentor, Marilyn (Judd), visits her. Her late mentor is there to warn her about a “dark future.” She advises Vivienne that she will be greeted by other ghosts. Those include the Spirit of Christmas Past (Brooks), to remind her of some happier Christmases.
Then, she is met with the Spirit of Christmas Present (Kimberly Williams-Paisley). She is there to help Vivienne change her present life, and send her on the way to a more satisfying future.
Will the spirits help Vivienne give her a more meaningful life? And will Gavin be part of her future? There will certainly be some music and a whole lotta Nashville Christmas.
Watch For All My Children Alum

About the movie, she told Digital Journal, “We all love Christmas movies and this one is going to involve a great story with a lot of great singing. I think country music fans are in for a treat. So tune in on November 21st on Hallmark.”
