EXCLUSIVE: Access Hollywood‘s Mario Lopez, together with his wife/Broadway star Courtney Lopez (A Chorus Line) are the latest actors to join Great American Family‘s lineup of holiday movies.
The duo will headline My Grown-Up Christmas Wish, which follows Mario Lopez as the mayor of an idyllic community of Long Grove. While decorating for Christmas with the residents, Brian discovers his childhood Christmas wish list which magically begins to come true, reminding Brian about the spirit and joy of the holiday. Returning to town for Christmas is Brian’s childhood friend Nina Meyers (Courtney Lopez), and soon a connection becomes undeniable as she helps Brian face a new challenge for the town. As Brian’s wishes come true, he inspires the town to showcase its warm culture and values in order to stop the modern world from stifling the charm and heart of Long Grove.
Joining his famous parents in the film is Dominic Lopez, who will play Brian — his dad’s character — as a young boy.
“We could not imagine better creative partners to join our Great American team than Mario and Courtney Lopez,” said Bill Abbott, President & CEO, Great American Media. “Mario and Courtney and the team around them are creative collaborators and absolutely devoted to telling stories that bring families together. The partnership is a Christmas wish come true for our company.”
The Lopez family joins an all-star Great American Christmas lineup for 2024 that includes Candace Cameron Bure, Danica McKellar, Cameron Mathison, Jill Wagner, Lauren Holly, and Bruce Boxleitner, with more stars and Christmas movies to be announced.
My Grown Up Christmas Wish is executive produced by Mark Roberts, Jeff Stearns, and Jemma Jones and is directed by Brian Herzlinger. It is based on an original screenplay by Brian and Megan Herzlinger.
