Hallmark is gearing up to deliver a whole host of new movies for this year’s Countdown to Christmas 2026 and amongst the offering is a new film starring Jessy Schram and Will Kemp. The film is Christmas in Canterbury – a romantic festive drama.
Describing the new film, Hallmark, said: “Rose (Schram) arrives in Canterbury, England eager to spend the holidays with her childhood friend Asha (Sohm Kapila) as she leaves behind her hometown of Vienna, OH following the passing of her beloved Grandma Bud. Having first met in a children’s choir they went on to pursue careers as choir masters.
“As Rose arrives Asha is put on bed rest in the final days of her pregnancy. Rose steps in when the headmistress offers her the job… not realising there was confusion over which Vienna children’s choir she worked with.
“Rose’s ‘glass half full’ attitude is tested when she crosses pathes with Harrison (Kemp), the traditionalist boys’ choir master who has an unwavering allegiance to history and precedents. The boys’ choir always performs at the annual Christmas Eve concert in Canterbury Cathedral but Rose questions why the girls don’t have the opportunity.
“When the school’s headmistress decides the two choirs should compete against each other for the honour, they get to work to prepare their students. Along the way, their rivalry sparks a romance and these two seemingly opposites from opposite sides of the pond discover they may not be so different after all.”
Should you wish to take a look at Christmas in Canterbury, the new movie makes its debut on Hallmark Channel on Friday December 11th. The film will air at 8/7c.
