Hallmark unveils The Christmas Cup

By Alex Wiggan

Looking for something new to watch this holiday season? Then how about taking a look at Hallmark’s new Christmas movie, The Christmas Cup?

The film stars Rhiannon Fish and Ben Rosenbaum and is one of a number of new holiday movies heading to screens this year as part of Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas 2025 programming block. The film follows the story of Staff Sergeant Kelly Brandt, who returns home for the holidays after a knee injury threatens to cut short her career.

Explaining the plot of the new movie, Hallmark, said: “Her family tries to help by encouraging her to lead her hometown team in the annual Christmas Cup against the rival town. It takes a lot of work, but Kelly organises her team and gets them as competition-ready as she can with the help of Fire Captain Quinn Stokley (Rosenbaum).

“Sparks begin to fly with Quinn, and through the whole process, Kelly is reminded of how much she loves to lead, but her heart still hopes she will be cleared to return to serve.

“Kelly ultimately receives the call she has been waiting for; however, it’s not what she expects. With the Marines needing her to report to the Hawaiian base on the day of the competition, Kelly soon realises there is more than one way to serve a community.”

Should you wish to take a look at The Christmas Cup, the new movie will air on Hallmark on Sunday November 30th. The movie debuts at 6/5c.

And should you want to check out other new Hallmark holiday movies, you may like to know movies such as A Royal Montana Christmas, A Christmas Angel Match, and Christmas on Duty will also be making their debut in the run-up to Christmas.
