Are you ready for it? A new Lifetime holiday movie inspired by the love story between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is coming Saturday (Nov. 23).

Christmas in the Spotlight stars Jessica Lord as Bowyn, a famous musician who sings about love and relationship, but with her career taking up so much of her time, dating is nearly impossible. Laith Wallschleger plays Drew, a pro football player who goes to one of Bowyn’s concerts with his niece. Later, he openly admits he has a crush on her and decides to give things a shot, even though their busy schedules might make it challenging.

In addition to Lord and Wallschleger, the cast also includes Emmy-winning host and producer Jeannie Mai and TikTok creator Haley Kalil, who’s making her first appearance on television.
