STATUS:
telefilm/mini-series in the can
DESCRIPTION:
(from Lifetime's press release, October 2022) Former Broadway star Billy Holiday (Mario Lopez) returns to his hometown for Christmas after being abruptly fired as the host-producer-judge of the hit TV series "Celebrity Dance Off." While there, he encounters Rae (Jana Kramer), the charismatic owner of the local dance studio, where Billy's 12-year-old nephew is her standout student. This Christmas, Rae is planning a dance recital fundraiser with the goal of taking her students to see a Broadway show in New York City. Billy volunteers to help Rae with the recital by reviving the town's traditional Christmas Eve show, which was once a showcase for local talent. With Billy's knack for producing and Rae's knowledge of all things local, their collaboration clicks and romantic sparks start flying! Cheri Oteri stars as Dallas, Billy's high-powered, fast-talking, Hollywood agent. Dallas scrambles to find Billy work after he is fired by his boss, Wayne, played by Mario Cantone, a network executive who is equal parts charming and ruthless! Courtney Lopez , Mario's real-life wife, also appears in the film as Joanna, the charismatic host of "Celebrity Dance Off," who is tapped to replace Billy (her former fling) as executive producer and head judge after his popularity hits the skids.
