The Holiday Dating Guide on Lifetime (2022) Plot & Cast

The Holiday Dating Guide will premiere on December 17th as part of the It’s a Wonderful Lifetime Lineup in 2022. It stars Maria Menounos and Brent Bailey. See the full cast list, photos, and a movie trailer now.


What is the Movie About?

Dating coach and aspiring book author Abigale Slater (Maria Menounos), is close to making her lifelong dream come true. She has completed her first book—a how-to guide for dating in today’s modern world—and is now more than ready to become a published author. However, after reading the book, her publisher Jack won’t proceed with the deal without knowing that her dating advice actually works.

Before he has a chance to say no, Abigale proposes that she prove the rules work by using them herself and making a man fall for her by Christmas Eve in 12 days. Although Abigale’s never seen love as a priority for herself, she sets out to find someone who will fall quickly enough to get this book in print. Things change when Abigale meets Michael Ryan (Brent Bailey), and her single-minded mission takes an unexpected turn. While following her own advice, and learning to expect the unexpected in the process, Abigale discovers the romance of her dreams.

A few days ago, Maria shared the news of her movie to her over 1 million followers on Instagram. “Does Abigale’s dating advice really work? Can she make Michael fall in love with her in just 12 days? Well…. Tune into The Holiday Dating Guide on 12/17 on Lifetime to find out! Ps. Whose hands are those??? Cuz they’re not mine 😂,” she wrote.

Brent Bailey portrays Michael. He is a 39 year old actor from Tucson, Arizona. Did you know Brent not only acted in this film but also was part of the writing team and an executive producer?

Brent shared a photo of he and his co-star, Maria to his Instagram profile. “My first writing credit, executive producer credit and first time being directed by the amazing @brianherzlinger – I’m so excited for you all to meet Michael and Abigale (@mariamenounos ) this Christmas on @itsawonderfullifetime – we had an amazing time making this movie for you and were surrounded by incredibly talented people that made it possible. (Instagram only allows 20 tags, so if I didn’t get you, I will on the next)” he wrote.

He recently filmed a BMW commercial and gave his followers a behind the scenes look.

“Some behind the scenes of my new @bmwusa holiday commercial! Loved this job and thrilled to have gotten to know @jonnymass — @a3artistsagency @sagaftra,” he wrote.
