Hallmark Teams Up With NFL and Chiefs for ‘Holiday Touchdown’ Christmas Movie, Tyler Hynes to Star


'Holiday Touchdown,' set to air during Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas, will star Tyler Hynes and Hunter King and will film at Arrowhead.

Here is the film’s official logline: “Alana Higman (King) is sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s ‘Fan of the Year’ contest. As the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them but when her grandfather’s (Begley Jr.) vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary.” (Will it make Variety ‘s top Hallmark movies ever list? I grew up without the money to afford organized sports and was a skateboarder, but going to Kansas, the folks who were taking care of us there — the whole PR team, everyone — I was genuinely moved and touched by this whole experience and how sweet these people were,” he said.
