GREAT AMERICAN FAMILY ANNOUNCES PRODUCTION WRAP ON "A CHRISTMAS LESS TRAVELED," STARRING CANDACE CAMERON BURE AND ERIC JOHNSON, PART OF GREAT AMERICAN CHRISTMAS 2024

NEW YORK, April 17, 2024 -- Great American Family announced it has completed production on what is sure to be one of the most anticipated new holiday films of the season - A Christmas Less Traveled, starring Candace Cameron Bure (My Christmas Hero, A Christmas Present) and Eric Johnson (Call Me Mrs. Miracle, "Flash Gordon") which premieres this November as part of Great American Christmas 2024.

In A Christmas Less Traveled, "The Dine and Dash" diner has a stack of mounting unpaid bills, forcing its owner, Desi (Bure) to sell her beloved, mint condition, cherry red 1964 Ford F-100, a gift from her deceased father. As Desi 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 less traveled road 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," Abbott concluded.

"A Christmas Less Traveled gently challenges us to truly embrace every moment we share with our families, friends and loved ones. It reminds us that forgiving ourselves and others is the pathway to set ourselves free," added Executive producer and CandyRock Entertainment CEO Candace Cameron Bure.

A Christmas Less Traveled is a Syrup Studios production in association with Candy Rock Entertainment being presented on Great American Family network under the Candace Cameron Bure presents banner. Costa Vassos Produces and Heather Hawthorn-Doyle directs a screenplay by Masey McClain, Justin D. James & Taylor Kalupa. Executive producers include Candace Cameron Bure, Jeffery Brooks, Ford Englerth, Eric Jarboe, Holly A. Hines, Gerald Webb, Heather Hawthorn-Doyle, and Trevor McWhinney. Supervising producers include Catherine Kretz, Michael Shepard, and Jonathan Shore with Doran S. Chandler and Trudi Thorwaldson as Associate producers.
