What Is Lifetime’s A Country Christmas Harmony About?
According to the Lifetime synopsis, Chrissy Kessler (Elliott) was a small-town girl who made it big as a country music superstar.
Before Chrissy Kessler’s (Elliott) meteoric rise to fame, the country music superstar was just a small-town girl with dreams of the big time. Now, with her record sales on a rapid decline, Chrissy is strong-armed by an unrelenting record executive to return to the hometown she left behind to perform a live Christmas concert. Accompanying her on this journey is her longtime supportive assistant Eugene (Pintauro).
Luke Covington’s (Quinn) quiet life is suddenly disrupted. That is because he runs into Chrissy, his ex-girlfriend, and former country music duo partner. She abandoned him to follow her solo dreams. However, that was years ago. Moreover, there was radio silence. Is he ready to forgive her?
Yet, after a tempestuous rainstorm forces the ex-sweethearts to seek shelter in Luke’s ranch home, the two realize that the only way they’ll survive the holidays is with the other one’s help.
Danny Pintauro Excited About Filming It’s A Wonderful Lifetime Movie
Danny Pintauro went to social media to share a photo of himself along with Brooke Elliott. He wrote on Instagram, “So excited to announce that I am joining the #itsawonderfullifetime lineup this year.🎄🎁🌟 I was so blessed to work with this amazing lady! Brooke Elliott is so kind and giving as an actor and we make a dynamic duo in ‘A Country Christmas Harmony!’ coming this Christmas on #lifetime! #lifetimemovies #acountrychristmasharmony #brookeelliott #dannypintauro #christmasmovies #marvistaentertainment #ninthhousefilms.”
Will Brooke Elliott Sing In A Country Christmas Harmony?
Although it looks like they have already filmed this Lifetime holiday movie, we don’t have a lot of details. One question is whether Brooke Elliott will be singing in this movie. We do not know. However, Brooke is the Executive Producer. In addition, this is a big reunion with Lifetime. Moreover, when she was on Drop Dead Diva, she performed a cornucopia of musical numbers. It would seem fitting that she would be singing in a movie that has her play a singer.
It’s A Wonderful Lifetime starts sometime in the late Fall. The network will release premiere dates once they have their annual holiday movie selection ready.
