The newest Hallmark Movies & Mysteries film, “Five More Minutes,” premieres on Saturday, November 20 at 10 p.m. Eastern, with encores airing all season. The movie stars Nikki DeLoach and David Haydn-Jones. Read on to learn all about where it was filmed and who stars.
‘Five More Minutes’ Was Filmed in Canada
“Five More Minutes” was filmed in Canada. The photo above from Linda-Lisa Hayter, showing the cast of “Five More Minutes,” was tagged as #vancouverfilmcrews, indicating at least part of the movie was filmed in Vancouver. The movie is based on the song, “Five More Minutes,” by Scott McCreery.
CMT reported that because the movie was filmed during the pandemic in Canada, McCreery couldn’t actually be in the movie himself. However, he was able to be an executive producer.
In the photo below, Hayter wrote: “A thank you to Nikki Deloach for sharing her talents and spirit, after an incredibly difficult chapter in her life. She brought the character of Clara to life, that only she, with her sparkle and effervescent energy could bring.”
DeLoach replied: “Thank you so much, LL. My soul sister. Oh how I love and adore you. Couldn’t have done it without you. You were my YES. I could write a novel about your gifts and talents and the beautiful way you human. But for now I’ll just say I’m so grateful for you. ❤️”
DeLoach shared some Instagram stories while filming, where have been saved on Twitter posts about what she shared.
Forgot to post these other two pictures w/ my last Nikki DeLoach post. Nikki posted these pictures on her IG w/ captions notes from set & Monday morning. Nikki is currently filming her Hallmark Christmas movie that is premiering this November on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries❄🎅
Nikki DeLoach just started filming something new today. Could it be a new Hallmark Christmas movie???
“First day of filming is going GREAT,” DeLoach joked from a dark trailer as folks struggled to get power back on. “This is good luck for us, right?”
