Crown Media Will Andrew Walker and Tyler Hynes star in a Christmas movie together?
Hallmark fans were hoping that rumors swirling about a possible Christmas movie starring Tyler Hynes and Andrew Walker might be true. Now we know that they are. A Christmas movie starring those two, along with Paul Campbell, is in the works.
The Movie Is Called ‘Three Wise Men & a Baby’
The rumors first started to gain steam when Twitter account Hallmark Enthusiast shared the news of a possible Tyler Hynes-Andrew Walker movie called “Three Wise Men and a Baby.”

However, they didn’t cite any concrete evidence for the rumor. The rumor has since been confirmed.
Sleepy Kitty Paw, a Twitter account known for sharing accurate information about Hallmark movies before they are officially announced, did note at the time that it was confirmed that a movie called “Three Wise Men and a Baby,” directed by Terry Ingram, is being filmed in British Columbia, Canada.
In addition to A CHRISTMAS SPARK and LONG LOST CHRISTMAS, three more holiday titles—Paul Ziller’s INVENTING THE CHRISTMAS PRINCE, Jon Rosenbaum’s CHRISTMAS CLASS REUNION and Terry Ingram’s THREE WISE MEN AND A BABY—all set to get underway in British Columbia in just next 2 weeks.
The account later shared the rumor that Paul Campbell may be part of the movie, but noted it is just a rumor at this point.
THREE WISE MEN & A BABY starts filming today in B.C. and while I don’t actually *know* that Paul Campbell was giving us a hint when he shared this Christmas Con pic with Andrew Walker and Tyler Hynes, I sure *hope* he was.
Hallmark Enthusiast’s Twitter account replied, writing: “Tyler and Andrew are for sure starring in Three Wise Men And A Baby, not 100% on Paul but pretty sure he is but I know Tyler and Andrew are starring it for sure, from clues and confirmation I got from someone I know & I just posted that they’re starring in it a little bit ago.”

Ingram directed the trio of “The Wedding Veil” movies, along with 14 episodes of “Chesapeake Shores.”
Hallmark Later Confirmed the Rumor
Hallmark has since confirmed the rumor when announcing its lineup of 40 new Christmas movies.
Variety reported the movie will star all three men and Margaret Colin. It’s called “Three Wise Men & a Baby” and it premieres on the Hallmark Channel on Saturday, November 19.
The synopsis reads: “Three brothers get the surprise of their lives when they are forced to work together to care for a baby over the holidays. As they slowly get the hang of things, they find themselves on unexpected journeys of self-discovery and begin to rebuild their relationships as brothers, as well as the damaged romantic and professional relationships in their respective lives…all while rediscovering their love of Christmas.”
Walker, Campbell, & Hynes All Had Cameos in Christmas Movies Last Season
Walker, Campbell, and Hynes all had celebrated cameos in different Christmas movies last season.
Hynes appeared in Walker’s movie, “My Christmas Family Tree.” Hynes played the role of an employee at a coffee shop during the first part of the movie. He was clean-shaven, which is a look that Hallmark fans weren’t used to since he had facial hair in his last movie, “Roadhouse Romance,” and “It Was Always You” with Erin Krakow. You can see photos of his cameo in Heavy’s story here.
After Hynes had a surprise cameo in Walker’s movie, the two continued the tradition. Walker then had a cameo in Hynes’ Christmas movie, “An Unexpected Christmas.”
The cameo scene showed Walker running into Hynes at a bar that was decked out for Christmas, while Hynes’ character was meeting up with co-star Bethany Joy Lenz. You can watch the cameo scene in Heavy’s story here.
Campbell appeared in “The Nine Kittens of Christmas” in a short cameo last season, and Alison Sweeney appeared in “Time for Them to Come Home for Christmas.”
There was a fifth cameo suggested that Hallmark didn’t approve, which you can read about in Heavy’s story here.
