Bah humbug! That’s Beatrice’s (Meghan Ory) take on Christmas, at least until she steps into Christmasland. In Hallmark’s new holiday offering, “Believe in Christmas,” airing Saturday, November 30, Beatrice, a self-proclaimed Christmas cynic, finds her skeptical heart softening under the festive glow of Christmasland. The premise is simple: take one Christmas-averse woman, throw her into a holiday wonderland with her eternally optimistic best friend, and watch the sparks fly when she meets the ever-charming Ethan, played by John Reardon. Will Christmasland’s twinkling lights and festive cheer thaw Beatrice’s icy exterior? More importantly, will Ethan’s charm be enough to convince this Scrooge stand-in that love, like Christmas magic, is real?
Ory and Reardon’s onscreen dynamic promises a blend of witty banter and heartwarming connection as their characters navigate the most wonderful time of the year. Will Beatrice succumb to the holiday spirit or cling to her cynicism? “Believe in Christmas” aims to answer this question, exploring themes of renewed hope, unexpected love, and the magic of new beginnings. For viewers seeking a cozy escape into holiday romance, Hallmark is hoping this film, filled with Christmasland’s distinctive traditions, fits the bill.
Tune in to Hallmark on Saturday, November 30, 2024, at 8:00 PM for the premiere of “Believe in Christmas.”
