‘Holiday Heartbreak’ Preview
Karma comes for Michael McCoy and his daughter in #HolidayHeartbreakBET! Find out how they’ll break a curse when this BET Original Movie premieres TONIGHT 6/5c!
This original Christmas movie from BET’s stars comedian Michael Colyar as a loving father whose womanizing ways are coming back to haunt his daughter this holiday season. When a curse threatens to destroy her love life, he must figure out how to help and break the curse.
Co-starring Maryam Basir, LisaRaye McCoy, AJ Johnson, DeWayne “Kountry Wayne” Colley, Tiffany Black, B Simone, Kenneth Wayne, and Lonnie Bee, this film promises lots of love, laughter, and heart.
In the trailer, a woman from Mike’s past says, “Until you apologize to me and every other woman that you’ve hurt, you reap what you sow.”
He later says, “I’m not proud of how I treated those women,” and his wife advises, “Your daughter’s true love has to confess his love to her and seal it with a kiss.”
In an interview with Fox5 Las Vegas, Colyar said it was “such a fantastic” movie.
“It was the first time I’ve starred in a feature film, which is excellent because I’ve been in the game 34 years,” said Colyar. “I’m the father who was sort of like a bad guy — I wasn’t good to the ladies when I was younger so now karma comes back and it hits me and I got to deal with it to break the spell that’s been put on my daughter. It’s funny, it’s romantic, it tells you what happens when you treat people a certain way ’cause it comes back to you. It’s about love, it’s about laughter, and it is off the chain.”
“I have a daughter that is 25, so when I was doing this movie I could understand what he was going through. I got to save her, but what I find out it really is when I’m trying to save her, I’m really saving myself.”
Holiday Heartbreak premieres Wednesday, December 16 at 6 p.m. ET/PT on BET.
