One Surprising Kristoffer Polaha List Role
Over the years, Kristoffer Polaha has portrayed a cornucopia of debonaire leading men on the Hallmark Channel. This is in addition to starring roles in non-Hallmark projects such as Jurassic World: Dominion, Wonder Woman 1984, Backstrom, Life Unexpected, and cult favorite, Valentine.
He has played a cornucopia of roles. However, there is one role that may surprise fans. On Monday, TV Insider reported that the Dickens Of A Holiday! star wants to star in a June Weddings movie. Hallmark is currently featuring a month of weddings with their June Weddings programming.
However, there is one more role he would like to play.
Is There A Hallmark Mystery In Polaha’s Future?
Another Kristoffer Polaha bucket list role is to star in another Hallmark mystery. Of course, he starred along with Jill Wagner in Mystery 101. Revealing that he does “love that genre,” as well as the “mystery audience,” he would like to do another.
Kristoffer Polaha’s First Hallmark Movie Was With A Future Royal
Although it feels like Kristoffer Polaha has been acting in romcoms on the feel-good network for years, his first Hallmark movie was in 2016. That was seven years ago. The movie is Dater’s Handbook, and his co-star was Meghan Markle. She portrays a woman who uses a book of dating rules to find Mr. Right. But, she doesn’t count on an REO Speedwagon-loving free-spirited guy to be the man of her dreams.
Polaha revealed that he and the future Duchess of Sussex didn’t think anyone would end up seeing this movie. He shared, “We didn’t understand what Hallmark was at that time, neither one of us.” However, later that year, she met Prince Harry and after that, the “Entire Commonwealth watched that movie over and over and over again.”
Hallmark Star Channeled Jimmy Stewart In Classic Christmas Movie
Kristoffer Polaha has starred in quite a few Christmas movies, but he channeled his inner Jimmy Stewart in one particular movie, Small Town Christmas. Early on, he realized that the bad guy was like Potter, and his character was like Jimmy Stewart in the holiday classic, It’s A Wonderful Life. He told Hallmark “I’ll do it if I can do Jimmy Stewart.” The network gave him the big ok.
Hallmark will air Small Town Christmas on Wednesday, June 28, at 11 a.m., Eastern, during Christmas In July. Kristoffer Polaha stars along with Ashley Newbrough. Fans can see this Jimmy Stewart impression for themselves.
