I kinda disagree. When I looked up that Twitter hashtag #SameTimeNextChristmas a week or 2 ago, I saw a bunch of onset pics & video clips with Bryan Greenburg & Lea Michelle. Bryan Greenberg is too recognizable/familiar an actor to not have some type of major role in this TV movie, but since all the previous promos & casting news all promoted Charles Michael Davis & Lea Michelle as the leads, I didn't think nothing of it.
This is the concept of the movie: - https://deadline.com/2019/08/bryan-...ay-movie-same-time-next-christmas-1202664657/ "In the movie, Michele plays Olivia Henderson, a young woman who met her childhood sweetheart, played by Davis, during her family’s annual Christmas visit to Hawaii. After being separated by distance and years, the two reunite at the same Hawaii resort years later and the old chemistry between them flares up anew – but circumstances conspire to keep them apart. Greenberg will play Gregg Harris, Olivia’s boyfriend, a super fit triathlete, dapper real estate agent who is always angling for the next big deal. He envisions him and Olivia as a super-team in Cincinnati real estate. Davis is Jeff Cutler, a handsome, affable, charming young man — Olivia’s childhood friend and teenage heartthrob from their annual Christmas trips to Hawaii." I don't really like when they try to create love stories out of couples that are already happy together, but Bryan Greenburg's character description to Leah's sound like a guy more focused on their careers rather than the relationship. But I don't know how they'll play his character for certain. If I have time I'll check it out.
I am still watching this movie as I type this during a break. I was really intrigued by the trailer which prompted me to jailbreak my 4K Firestick so I could check it out : Haven't got to the ending yet but the casting is curious if they really want us to believe that Sarah Butler's character is a faithful wife . . . that baby should have been cast to look more like Hank Baskett's little boy with Kendra Wilkenson but I don't know how this movie ends yet.
Apparently, the second writer for the film was involved in the scenario. His father, I believe was in the same situation and he (the son) watched it unfold.

I'm in. Agent Trip from the first 2 seasons of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." & Adrianna from the CW's 90210 reboot series.
This is a new Same Time, Next Christmas preview that introduces the boyfriend (Bryan Greenburg) of Olivia Henderson (Lea Michelle) and creates an internal conflict.
I just hope this isn't one of these films where they have cheating involved. That's not very romantic... or christmasy. lol. We'll see this Thursday though. I'll be able to watch it live.
This will not be the first time that Sterling K. Brown has smashed a white woman. He smashed Kate Hudson in the movie Marshall.
I'm finally watching "The World We Make" right now. I'm 43 minutes in & OMG this movie comes off as an afterschool special. It's heavy-handed & cringeworty, LOL. I groaned & chuckled when the female lead was telling her friend that dude she was going out with is "African-American" instead of just saying "black". EDIT: @Tsharp99 They really got an attractive biracial chick with natural long curly hair to play the angry black chick that whines about the black male lead dating a white chick. HORRIBLE CASTING!!! I don't even believe her when she says she has limited dating options. A chick like this normally has NO PROBLEMS getting attention from niggas.
Wait....they're still giving time to a black chick in these films talking about their men being taken?
Actually not. I have seen and heard some of those beautiful lightskinned and mixed models talk down on IR between black men and white women. I can't remember the one's name whom I have specifically seen said that in a tweet, but remember it has nothing to do with them not being able to get a man. That's a front. It's this indoctrinated thinking that has been instilled in them from other black women that think like that and teaches them that black men that date outside their race hates black women and white women can't be trusted. Once a mixed race girl is accepted as "black-black" they have that put in their heads. There are white people that do prefer to say African American instead of black so it's not that far from believing. lol.
