Hallmark's Filmed Tons of Flicks in Canada, Including 'A Glenbrooke Christmas'
Updated Dec. 12 2020, 6:08 p.m. ET
Hallmark Movie & Mysteries has had one of its most prolific production years ever filming movies in 2020. Now while a lot of people might turn their noses up at the flicks and point out they not only have more or less the same plot lines, but also movie posters, folks seem to love them around this time of year — which explains why the network is making so many of these films. A Glenbrooke Christmas follows the network's same cinematic tradition, and viewers want to know, where was it filmed?
So where was 'A Glenbrooke Christmas' filmed? Canada!
Just like Christmas in Evergreen and many other titles, A Glenbrooke Christmas was filmed in The Great White North. Unlike the idyllic little town in CIE, much of the production for AGC took place in Vancouver. Actresses Lisa McFadden and Latonya Williams both shared picturesque photos of beautiful Vancouver landscapes, tagging the location while on location for the film.
Another photo of Latonya and co-star Antonio Cupo has been circulating the internet and shared by holiday movie stans on social media. The actors are in firefighter attire enjoying the scenic Vancouver landscape around them.
Meghan Trainor fans were also stoked to see that the pop singer would be providing tunes for the flick with her cover of Winter Wonderland being used to help promote the film in its trailer.
The film stars Antonio and Autumn Reeser, who also starred in Hallmark's I Do, I Do in 2015. The actor wrote online that he was excited to be acting in another project with his co-star.
He wrote on Instagram: "TEN years and 3 amazing @hallmarkmovie experiences together. @autumn_reeser #love Second pic is 6 years ago to the day!!"
Everyone on set seemed to have been getting in the Christmas spirit well before the premiere of the movie, too; they were constantly sharing festive group selfies and pictures from their work on set. Which is kind of the entire point of Hallmark holiday movies, right? It would kinda stink to find out that the cast hates each other and are a bunch of Scrooges off camera, but it certainly looks like their spirits are all holly jolly.
Even though filming took place in the fall, again, this is Canada we're talking about, which means the threat of snowfall is lurking around every corner.
As with any major film project these days, there are strict COVID-19 protocols being taken day in, day out on set. Many movies and TV shows have to hire specially trained coronavirus compliance workers to maintain a healthy atmosphere on set and to mitigate potential exposure.
When does 'A Glenbrooke Christmas' air?
Wondering what the movie's about and want to catch it on the Hallmark channel? Here's the official synopsis: "As Christmas nears, heiress Jessica Morgan seizes what seems like her last chance to experience a relaxed Christmas and heads off to the small town of Glenbrooke, where she meets a handsome fireman."
So a big city person meets small town life, learns to unwind, and falls in love. If that sounds like your cup of eggnog, it's airing on Dec. 12 at 10 p.m. EST.
