Deadline Hollywood reports:
After last year’s Twinkle All the Way featured an on-screen, same-sex kiss between couple Lex and Danny (Brian Sills and Mark Ghanimé), Lifetime will continue to bolster their LGBTQ representation with The Christmas Set Up. This marks the network’s first movie with an LGBTQ romance as the lead story.
In addition, Lifetime has greenlit A Sugar & Spice Holiday, its first holiday movie centered on a Chinese-American family. Jennifer Liao is set to direct with Eirene Donohue writing. Casting is currently underway on both movies, with production set to begin this month.
Here’s the official synopsis for the LGBTQ holiday romance The Christmas Set Up, per @lifetimetv. Filming will begin this month. Casting currently underway. pic.twitter.com/sJ3YpFEX45
