Netflix will bring the festive cheer on November 1st as it acquires the licenses to 10 Hallmark Movies, all of which debuted on Hallmark Channel last holiday season. Here’s your full rundown of all ten movies coming up.
A few of these Hallmark movies have been known to be coming to Netflix for quite some time now, but yesterday, Netflix expanded the list of which Hallmark movies would be dropping in the United States come Friday, November 1st.
There’s plenty of Hallmark movie regulars that featured in last year’s slate whether that’s Andrew Walker, Bethany Joy Lenz, Kristoffer Polaha, Jonathan Bennett, Wes Brown of Lacy Chabert. Chabert actually features in three of the movies outlined below, plus she will also be the star of her first Netflix Original Christmas movie in the form of Hot Frosty, due out later in November.
This marks the first time in a long time that Hallmark Channel has licensed its content to Netflix in the US, although many of its Christmas movies have and continue to land on Netflix in international territories.
