Christmas movie lovers have something extra special to look forward to in 2026, as Hallmark favourite Lacey Chabert is returning to the screen in a brand-new festive film set in the most magical place on Earth.

The upcoming movie, Holiday Ever After: A Disney World Wish Come True, will take viewers straight to Walt Disney World Resort for a heart-warming Christmas romance filled with festive lights, family moments, and a touch of Disney magic.

✨ A Christmas Love Story in the Most Magical Place on Earth

In the film, Lacey Chabert plays Lindsey, who travels to Disney World during the holiday season with her family.

While enjoying the festive atmosphere of the parks, she unexpectedly runs into Philip, played by Travis Van Winkle — a man she previously had a disastrous first date with.

Things become even more awkward when the pair discover they’re staying in neighbouring hotel rooms, meaning they can’t exactly avoid each other during their magical Christmas getaway.

But as the holiday trip unfolds, sparks begin to fly again. Between family adventures, magical moments around the parks, and a heartfelt wish made at a Disney fountain, the two begin to realise that maybe their story isn’t over after all.

🎬 Filmed Inside Walt Disney World

One of the most exciting parts of the movie is that it was filmed on location at Walt Disney World, something rarely seen in Hallmark Christmas films.

Fans can expect to see:

  • Beautifully decorated Disney parks at Christmas

  • Magical nighttime fireworks

  • Iconic Disney locations and attractions

  • Festive holiday lights and decorations

  • Heart-warming family moments set against the Disney backdrop

It’s the perfect mix of Disney magic and classic Hallmark romance.

⭐ A Dream Project for Lacey Chabert

For Chabert, who has starred in dozens of Hallmark holiday movies, this project is especially meaningful.

Often called the “Queen of Hallmark Christmas movies,” she has become one of the most beloved stars of the network’s annual Countdown to Christmas event.

Filming a Christmas movie inside Disney World makes this one of her most unique festive projects yet.

📅 When Will It Be Released?

Holiday Ever After: A Disney World Wish Come True is expected to premiere during Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas 2026, which usually begins in late October and runs through December.

That means fans still have a little while to wait — but if early excitement is anything to go by, this Disney-themed Christmas romance could become one of the most talked-about holiday movies of the year.

Christmas lights, Disney magic, and a heart-warming love story — this is one festive movie fans won’t want to miss.
