ABC announced that it has picked up a special holiday movie “Same Time, Next Christmas” set to air December 2019, from Freeform Studios. The movie stars New York Times bestselling author and singer, Lea Michele.
In “Same Time, Next Christmas,” Lea Michele will play the lead role of Olivia Henderson, a young woman who met her childhood sweetheart during her family’s annual Christmas visit to Hawaii.
