As if successful Super Bowls and promoting out stadiums wasn’t sufficient for Swifties and Chiefs followers alike, America’s sweethearts Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s newfound romance now seems to be the inspiration behind an upcoming Hallmark Christmas film.
Hallmark Media introduced that it has partnered with the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs and Skydance Sports to make the unique movie referred to as “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story.”

Hallmark says the film will observe the fictional lifetime of Alana Higman and her Chiefs-crazed household as they compete to win the group’s “Fan of the Year” contest. However, a budding romance emerges as Alana finds herself falling for the Chiefs worker answerable for evaluating the households of finalists in the competitors.
As the two spend extra time collectively, the romantic connection they share continues to develop. But when her grandfather’s fortunate Chiefs heirloom goes lacking, Alana begins to query every little thing she thought she knew about destiny and her future with Derrick — “except, that’s, somewhat Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary,” Hallmark stated.
Production is at present slated to start subsequent month, and the total film might be filmed in Kansas City, Missouri — house to each Hallmark and the Chiefs — and can embrace scenes from the iconic GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, which has been coined the loudest stadium in the world.

“With Hallmark and the Kansas City Chiefs each homegrown, rooted in values, custom and group, there’s a particular alchemy between these two iconic organizations,” Hallmark Chief Brand Officer Darren Abbott stated in a press release. “By mixing the heat of Hallmark storytelling with the pleasure {of professional} soccer, we’re thrilled to provide audiences a front-row seat to this group’s spirit, wealthy traditions and passionate followers that outline Kansas City, all wrapped up in the comforting and uplifting Hallmark means.”
The movie is scheduled to debut this winter vacation season and can premiere throughout Hallmark’s annual “Countdown to Christmas” programming occasion. Chiefs President Mark Donovan stated the group was “honored” to be teaming up with a longstanding Kansas City staple like Hallmark and is trying ahead to connecting with new audiences.
“This partnership unites two passionate fanbases and offers us a possibility to indicate Chiefs Kingdom’s vitality and custom on one in all the most-watched channels throughout the vacation season,” stated Donovan.
