Every holiday season, our favorite streaming services and networks offer a new variety of cozy Christmas classics. From family favorites to romantic romps, you can almost always count on catching something fun and festive as you scroll for something to watch—and the Roku Channel is getting in on the excitement this year! This holiday season, the streaming service will roll out two exciting new merry love stories—and they star a handful of familiar faces we can’t wait to see shine! Here, a look at the upcoming premieres.
‘Second Chance Holiday’ will tell a heartwarming tale
Ayesha Curry might be married to basketball superstar Stephen Curry, but the 37-year-old is proving she’s got a set of skills and talents that rival her hubby. Ayesha has penned a handful of cookbooks, hosted her own Food Network series Ayesha’s Home Kitchen, and in the last few years, has been putting her acting skills on display.
In Second Chance Holiday, Ayesha will take the lead as Chelsey, a dating expert who always seems to find herself dumped just in time for the holidays. Tired of this twisted tradition and hoping to finally put an end to her bad luck, things take a turn thanks to an unexpected reunion with her high school flame, brought to life by Matthew Daddario.
“There’s something truly magical about holiday rom-coms,” said Curry in a statement as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. “They invite you into these charming, cozy worlds where anything feels possible. Chelsey is such a fun, heartfelt character that I fell in love with while bringing her to life.”
‘The Holiday Spark’ stars a Bachelor Nation favorite!
The world first got to know Joey Graziadei when he appeared on Season 20 of The Bachelorette, and soon after, he took the lead in Season 28 of The Bachelor. His season of the series concluded with him proposing to Kelsey Anderson, and since then, he’s become a beloved public figure. After his contributions to the Bachelor franchise, he went on to compete on Dancing With the Stars and came out victorious—and his success has only continued.
This Christmas, Joey will star in The Holiday Spark opposite Jamie Chung. Joey will bring the character of Dean to life, a single firefighter who recruits Laura, an illustrator of children’s books, to help him execute an out-of-this-world holiday party for his firehouse. As they work to plan the party, Dean might just reevaluate his stance on relationships and commitment.
This will mark Joey’s first acting gig despite growing rather comfortable in front of the camera over the last few years, and fans can’t wait to see what he brings to this role.
“Acting in my first feature film has been a dream come true and such an exciting next chapter for me. The Holiday Spark is filled with so much heart, and I feel incredibly lucky that this is the project I get to make my debut with,” Joey said in a statement. “Working alongside Jamie and our talented cast and crew was an amazing experience. I learned so much. I can’t wait for audiences to fall in love with this story and kick off the holiday season with us.”
Information regarding release dates for these films have yet to be revealed, but we can’t wait to ring in the Christmas season with these new movies!
