The Hallmark Channel is known for its cheesy but heartwarming Christmas movies. This year, the channel decided to diversify its casts by featuring its first openly gay lead couple, wsls.com reports.
«The Christmas House» chronicles Brandon (played by Jonathan Bennett of «Mean Girls» fame) and his husband Jake (played by Brad Harder) as they visit family during the holidays while anxiously awaiting a call about the adoption of their first child.
One family, three stories. The Mitchells brings back a revered family tradition during the holidays. Robert Buckley co-wrote and executive produced this all-new Hallmark Channel Original movie with star studded cast including Jonathan Bennett, Ana Ayora, Sharon Lawrence, Treat Williams and Brad Harder.
