Hallmark Channel Announces Sequel to “Three Wise Men and a Baby”

The Hallmark Channel has announced a sequel to its 2022 holiday movie “Three Wise Men and a Baby,” with the working title “Three Wiser Men and a Boy.” The original film was the network’s most-watched original movie premiere of 2022.

The sequel will see the return of Paul Campbell, Tyler Hynes, and Andrew Walker as the Brenner brothers, along with Margaret Colin reprising her role. The new movie is set to premiere during the network’s 15th annual Countdown to Christmas programming event later this year.

In anticipation of the sequel, Hallmark Channel is airing a “Three Wise Men”-themed mini-marathon on Friday, April 28, featuring three holiday movies: “It’s Christmas, Eve,” “Christmas by Starlight,” and “Three Wise Men and a Baby.”

Jennifer Kramer, Vice President of Development at Hallmark Media, shared that viewers and critics had fallen for the charms of the Brenner brothers, and many had expressed a desire to see more. The new film promises to deliver more humor and heart, building on the success of the first.

“Three Wiser Men and a Boy” will take place five years after the events of the original, with the Brenner brothers once again coming together for the holidays. The story will include romantic entanglements, family dynamics, and the brothers’ unique brand of holiday cheer.
