Candace Cameron Bure’s First Great American Family Christmas Movie: Get Details
If you’re looking for new Candace Cameron Bure’s holiday movies this year, you’ll have to turn to Great American Family, which has announced the details of her first original Christmas film since signing with Great American Media to develop, produce, and star in movies and television in April.
The Full House star, who previously had a deal with Hallmark, will star in and executive produce A Christmas…Present, which will premiere in November 2022. It’s part of Great American Christmas, the network’s holiday programming event, which kicks off on October 21. Original holiday movies will premiere every Saturday and Sunday, and Christmas movies will run all day and night through the end of 2022.
In A Christmas…Present, Bure stars as Maggie Larson, an overly scheduled real estate agent and Type-A mom who takes her family to spend Christmas with her widowed brother and his daughter. Maggie and her brother have decidedly different expectations for the holiday. Through a series of transformative events, Maggie learns to embrace the reason for the season.
“A Christmas … Present is about slowing down enough to recognize what’s right in front of our eyes,” Bure said in a statement. “The hustle and bustle of the Christmas season will arrive before we know it but it’s through the quiet moments that we hear God speak to us, directing our path to what’s most important.”
Added Bill Abbott, President & CEO of Great American Media, “Candace is an incredibly talented and collaborative filmmaker whom I have had the pleasure of working with for more than 15 years. I am thrilled to be kicking off our partnership with a must-see film like A Christmas…Present, which will delight our fans this holiday season and is indicative of the memorable movies and family-friendly entertainment that Great American Media is looking forward to creating with Candace and the Candy Rock team.”
Bure, Jeffery Brooks, Ford Englerth and Gerald Webb are producing the project on behalf of Candy Rock Entertainment. Brad Krevoy, Eric Jarboe, Amanda Phillips, Amy Krell, Lorenzo Nardini, Susie Belzberg Krevoy, and Jimmy Townsend are executive producers. Brent Ryan Green produces. Michael Shepard and Bradley M. Goodman are supervising producers. Marlisa Fruehauf associate produces. Talia Bella is line producer. The film is directed by Lesley Demetriades and written by Rick Garman.

Too bad everyone's moving to a channel few viewers get. So they will eventually fade in the past

Marc Blucas is an awesome performer. At 82 I wish he was my son or grandson or GREAT grandson. Hopefully he will be in many more movies.

I am so excited to see this movie. I love Candice and to know that the movie is being shot in the town that I live in, is exciting.

What I don't get is when people say that. They have good Christian values. But yet they'll star in this movie. And most likely, it's always Candace with another man. Who always seems to be hugging and kissing them. Is that really good Christian values?

What is the song played when Candace shows up at the church at 1:43 near the end of the movie?

I was in Madison Wisconsin several years ago and was fortunate enough to meet the art director of hallmark cards in the airport before the flight was canceled. I was also privileged to meet the widow of the inventor and design of the M R I technology who was also flying to my area of Charlotte. She offered to let me drive her rental car to Charlotte with her on the condition that I would hold her package on the plane for safety. I wasn't hesitant about that at all so when we landed in Greenville SC we headed out to Charlotte and had a great time talking about our lives and stopped in Spartanburg for a meal and she could call her son to tell him about the delay. You can imagine his reaction to the comments on who she was with and what the heck was she doing with a used car salesman she met in an airport. We were laughing all the way to Charlotte. She came back to my office several times but I was in the hospital for heart surgery and sure regret I didn't get a chance to see her again 💔. I just wanted you to know how much I love the movies I am watching on great American family TV and say hi to you and your huge new and older family and friends who are supporting you and your beautiful morals in this new endeavor with the former hallmark executive. Thank l again and merry Christmas to all

Over/Under 500 times; Her character looking blissfully surprised when "everything just comes together!" even though white privilege has ensured that EVERYTHING has ALWAYS come together for her in her ENTIRE LIFE!
Take the over all day.
I'd rather tear a knee ligament than watch this movie.
