Lifetime is airing Toying with the Holidays in December as part of their “It’s a Wonderful Lifetime” event. It follows successful original movie premieres like A Fiancé for Christmas.

Toying with the Holidays on Lifetime: What is the Movie About?

Workaholic designer Danielle (Cindy Busby) returns to her hometown of Holly Pines with her young son Paul to introduce him to some beloved holiday traditions, including the North Pole Express train. When she discovers the North Pole Express has been sidelined, she reconnects with former high school classmate Kevin (Chad Michael Murray), now hobbyist and model train enthusiast himself. Together, Danielle and Kevin attempt to pull off a Christmas miracle, and quite possibly give Danielle a few reasons – even a romantic one! – to consider staying in Holly Pines for good.

At 12:27 of the Lifetime holiday video below, see an exclusive sneak peek of the movie:

Chad Michael Murray is probably best known for his role as Lucas Scott in the WB/CW series One Tree Hill.

Chad also recurred on Gilmore Girls and Dawson’s Creek. In more recent years, you may have seen him on Sun Records, Star, and Riverdale. Or, perhaps any number of the made-for-TV movies he’s done, including Lifetime’s Too Close for Christmas and Hallmark’s Sand Dollar Cove. 2021 was a busy year for Chad – he portrayed Ted Bundy in Ted Bundy: American Boogeyman, starred with Bruce Willis in Survive the Game, and starred in Angel Falls Christmas.
