Get a Sneak Peek of 'A Christmas Less Traveled' Starring Candace Cameron Bure
Candace Cameron Bure is ready to be Queen of Christmas again. Since heading over to Great American Family, the actress has worn many hats, including that of Chief Creative Officer, curating content for her like-minded viewers. Already thinking about the holidays, Bure just wrapped filming A Christmas Less Traveled for Great American Family. Here's what we know about the movie so far.
What is A Christmas Less Traveled about?
The Dine and Dash diner has a stack of mounting unpaid bills and its owner, Desi (Bure) is forced to sell "Old Red," her beloved, mint condition, cherry red 1964 Ford F-100. The truck, a gift from her deceased father, means the world to her. As she visits the vintage truck one last time, she discovers a recorded message from her dad on an old audio cassette. Desi’s Dad’s voice sends her and Old Red out to retrace her family’s most memorable moments one last time. Just as the journey begins, Desi meets Greyson (Johnson) who offers her a generous payment in exchange for a ride to “close the most important deal” of his life. Little do Desi and Greyson realize the road less traveled will reveal more about each of them than they could have ever known.
“Filmmakers have been inspired by road trips for as long as movies have been made,” said Bill Abbott, president & CEO, Great American Media. “In A Christmas Less Traveled, viewers will go on a scenic journey with our characters to celebrate Christmas in communities and with acquaintances, treasuring every heartfelt moment of discovery or remembrance in a vintage vehicle that seems to magically know all the right places to stop.”
