It’s still summertime, but Hallmark Channel is already looking ahead to this winter’s annual 16th annual Countdown to Christmas, releasing some big movie news and sneak previews of anticipated new holiday series.

Hallmark has lined up another massive partnership, this time with the Grand Ole Opry. “A Grand Ole Opry Christmas,” an original holiday movie starring Nikki DeLoach and Kristoffer Polaha, will premiere this year during Hallmark Channel’s 16th annual Countdown to Christmas programming event.
