Hallmark Media has just released details about the Hallmark Channel’s Christmas in July celebration. The lineup this year contains some surprises, along with two brand-new movies that Hallmark usually airs each Christmas in July season.
Christmas in July Will Include a ‘Three Wise Men’ Extended Cut
This year’s Christmas in July schedule is going to include an extended cut of “Three Wise Men & a Baby,” airing on the Hallmark Channel, Hallmark’s press release revealed. The extended cut previously aired on Hallmark’s streaming service, but this will mark its first time on TV.
The extended cut, featuring a number of deleted scenes, is going to air on Saturday, July 6 at 8 p.m. Eastern/Pacific.
One of the New Christmas Movies Premieres in June
This year’s lineup also includes two new movies, but one of them is actually airing in late June rather than July, even though it’s part of the Christmas in July lineup.
“Falling Like Snowflakes,” starring Marcus Rosner and Rebecca Dalton, premieres on the Hallmark Channel on Saturday, June 29 at 8 p.m. Eastern/Pacific, according to Hallmark’s press release.
The synopsis reads: “A photographer (Dalton), determined to complete her exhibit by capturing a rare photo of a 12-sided snowflake, enlists the help of a childhood friend (Rosner) and they go on a mission they’ll never forget.”
The 2nd New Christmas Movie Premieres on July 20
On July 20, the second new Christmas movie will premiere. This one is called “A Very Vermont Christmas” and stars Katie Leclerc and Ryan McPartlin. It will air on the Hallmark Channel at 8 p.m. Eastern/Pacific, according to Hallmark’s press release.
The synopsis reads: “A local champion skier (Leclerc) and Vermont brew master (McPartlin) team up with an unlikely match to create a seasonal microbrew, in order to save her family’s business by Christmas.”
