This summer, Hallmark is embracing ‘Christmas in July’ with the debut of some new holiday-themed movies. One of the films is A Royal Christmas Crush, which debuts on July 8th, while another is Take Me Back for Christmas.
Produced by Vortex Media, Take Me Back For Christmas stars Vanessa Lengies and Corey Sevier. The movie follows the story of a young woman called Renée, who is granted a wish that turns her life upside down.
According to Hallmark, “Renée (Lengies) always dreamed of starting her own business but when her mom got sick, she and her husband Aaron (Sevier) moved back to the suburbs to care for her and were forced to put their dreams on hold. Now 10 years later, she is officially stuck in a rut with mounting bills and a dead-end job putting pressure on her normally happy marriage.
“After a particularly disheartening day working at a local gift shop, an elf running the Santa display offers to grant Renée a Christmas wish. Although sceptical, her exasperation gets the best of her, and she wishes for a different life…only to wake up in a New York City high rise as CEO of one of the most successful meal kit delivery companies in the world. To top it all off, her mom is still alive.
“It looks like her wish came true and her new reality is seemingly perfect, except for one thing – she is no longer married to Aaron. In a desperate attempt to win him back, Renée hires Aaron, now a successful chef, to develop a Christmas dinner meal kit benefiting local food banks.
“With her new plan in place, she and Aaron begin to fall in love all over again, bringing her one step closer to ‘having it all.’ But as complications arise in this new reality and the clock ticks closer to Christmas Eve, Renée is forced to ask herself if going back is the key to moving forward in life and love.”
Justin Rebelo, Bill Marks and Christopher Giroux are executive producers on Take Me Back for Christmas, while Kate Pragnell is on scripting duties. The movie is directed by Corey Sevier.
Should you wish to take a look at the new movie, and experience some ‘Christmas in July’, Take Me Back for Christmas makes its debut in the US on the Hallmark Channel on Saturday July 15th at 8pm ET/PT.
