Jennifer Love Hewitt Shares Her Daughter’s Hilarious Reaction to Discovering Her Dad Featured in The Holiday Junkie Alongside Actress

As a dedicated follower of Jennifer Love Hewitt‘s career, I am thrilled to see her returning with another heartwarming project, The Holiday Junkie. What makes this project even more special is the involvement of her husband, Brian Hallisay, who will be portraying her love interest in the film.

Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt returns with a new project, “The Holiday Junkie,” where her spouse, Brian Hallisay, joins her as a co-star, playing her love interest. Jennifer shared with People magazine how their daughter found it amusing when she learned that her dad would be part of this venture.

The artist shared with the press that “The first thing she asked was, ‘Mommy, will he be good to you this time?'” To which he replied, “Absolutely, my dear, it seems like a Christmas miracle. He’s portraying a kind character towards me.

For those unfamiliar, Hallisay is recognized for taking on antagonistic roles. He has previously embodied such characters in Hewitt’s Lifetime series, The Client List, and also played her estranged husband in her other show, 9-1-1, where he portrayed a former spouse prone to abuse.

In her interview, the actress shared that he wasn’t very considerate towards her in both her Lifetime show and 9-1-1 series. Interestingly, she mentioned with a chuckle that her daughter was thrilled because she believed her father would be nicer to her character on screen.

In the upcoming movie, not only does Hewitt’s spouse make an appearance, but so do their three kids – Autumn, Atticus (who is 9 years old), and Aidan (aged 3). This production is said to be influenced by the actress’s emotional experience following her mother’s death from cancer in 2012 at the age of 67. After this tragic event, she identified herself as a “holiday enthusiast” in 2013, finding solace and coping mechanisms in the joy of the holiday season.

In the movie “I Know What You Did Last Summer”, its star revealed that she appreciated being part of a project which paid tribute to her mother alongside her spouse, as it was an exceptional way to honor her, despite having just met her on one occasion.

The artist mentioned how wonderful it felt to have Hallisay present. To the media, he stated, “I take great pride in being among the limited number of films that offer a Christmas experience for those who feel emotions beyond simple joy during the holiday season.

The Christmas Junkie is reportedly slated to premiere on December 14, 2024.
