Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s on-field Super Bowl kiss seems to have inspired a Chiefs-themed Hallmark Christmas movie, as it’s been announced that production for the film is set to start this summer.
On Tuesday, both organizations and the NFL and Skydance Sports, shared that the upcoming holiday movie, ‘Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story,’ will be in the works starting in July.
‘Holiday Touchdown’ will be based on the journey of a young woman, Alana Higman, who ‘is sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s ”Fan of the Year” contest,’ according to a Chiefs press release.
The team’s director of fan engagement, Derrick, is charged with deciding if Alana’s family is a strong contender for the contest, and ‘as the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them.’
The movie will also put forward the Chiefs’ hometown as it will be filmed entirely in Kansas City. Hallmark is also from there, having been founded in Kansas City in 1910.
Actors Hunter King, Tyler Hynes and Ed Begley Jr. are all expected to star in the film.
