Fresh off another successful holiday season, some of Hallmark’s biggest stars have already filmed new movies set to debut on Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery in February 2025, including Lacey Chabert, Alison Sweeney, Rachael Leigh Cook, Robert Buckley, Janel Parrish, and Victor Webster. Each of the new movies will also be available to stream on Hallmark+ the day after their linear cable premieres.
The February movie roster comes at a time when Hallmarkies are already excited for the new January 2025 lineup of new movies and season premieres of their favorite shows, kicking off with the season 3 premiere of “The Way Home” on January 3. Here’s what we can confirm is coming in February…
Lacey Chabert & Robert Buckley Co-Star in ‘An Unexpected Valentine’
EntertainmentNOW / HallmarkFEBRUARY 1 — “An Unexpected Valentine” on Hallmark Channel at 8 p.m. Eastern time: According to Hallmark’s synopsis, Hannah (Lacey Chabert) and Finn (Robert Buckley) have a “chance encounter on Valentine’s Day” that brings them together as “they race through New York City to return a lost engagement ring and save one couple’s special day.”
“An Unexpected Valentine” will be Chabert’s 42nd Hallmark movie after a busy fall that included “The Christmas Quest” co-starring Kristoffer Polaha, her unscripted Hallmark+ series “Celebrations With Lacey Chabert” and her hit Netflix movie, “Hot Frosty.” Buckley, a “One Tree Hill” alum, has become a Hallmark fan-favorite since his first Hallmark Channel rom-com in 2020, “Love in Store.”
Alison Sweeney & Victor Webster Reunite for New ‘Hannah Swensen Mystery’
HallmarkFEBRUARY 6 — “Reality Bites: A Hannah Swensen Mystery” on Hallmark Mystery at 8 p.m. Eastern time: Though Hallmark Mystery has scheduled the latest mystery starring Alison Sweeney and Victor Webster for February 6, it hasn’t provided a synopsis yet for the new movie.
The new mystery comes one year after Hallmark announced that Webster was joining Sweeney’s popular mystery franchise after Cameron Mathison, who co-starred in eight prior mysteries as Hannah’s fiancé, Detective Mike Kingston, before leaving Hallmark for a deal with Great American Family in late 2023. Sweeney and Webster had already worked together in 2022 and 2023’s “The Wedding Veil” trilogies, so it was an easy transition to film new “Hannah Swensen Mysteries” in 2024 — “One Bad Apple” and “A Sprinkle of Deceit.”
Rachael Leigh Cook Headlines ‘Sisterhood, Inc.’
GETTYFEBRUARY 8 — “Sisterhood, Inc.” on Hallmark Channel at 8 p.m. Eastern time: According to Hallmark’s synopsis, Cook co-stars with Daniella Monet and Leonidas Gulaptis as corporate exec Megan, who “starts a board of directors to improve her younger sister’s chaotic life and finds romance with a psych professor who uncovers her tough demeanor.”
Cook, who had to cancel multiple appearances in December due to a rough bout of pneumonia, created lots of buzz while she was filming the new movie — which was originally called “Like Nobody’s Business” — in and around Albany and Schenectady, New York, in November. Though Cook is well-established as a rom-com queen, Former Nickelodeon star Monet is fairly new to Hallmark (she appeared in 2024’s “Holiday Crashers”) and “Sisterhood, Inc.” will mark Australian actor Gulaptis’ Hallmark debut, per IMDb.
Janel Parrish & Scott Michael Foster Star in ‘Return to Office’
EntertainmentNOW / HallmarkFEBRUARY 15 — “Return to Office” on Hallmark Channel at 8 p.m. Eastern time: The movie chronicles two co-workers — played by Janel Parrish and Scott Michael Foster — after they make their return to the office on a hybrid schedule. “Known to each other only as Ms. Monday and Mr. Tuesday start sending friendly notes, sparking an office romance,” Hallmark’s synopsis says.
A week after Parrish starred in December’s “Sugarplummed,” she posted photos from the set of her newest movie, calling it “another cute thing I can’t wait to tell you about.” Foster is likely best known for his role on the CW’s “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,” per IMDb. His previous Hallmark movies were 2019’s “In the Key of Love” and 2021’s “Love, For Real.”
Emily Tennant & Jake Foy Team Up for ‘The Wish Swap’
EntertainmentNOW / HallmarkFEBRUARY 22 — “The Wish Swap” on Hallmark Channel at 8 p.m. Eastern time: Emily Tennant and Jake Foy star as Casey and Henry in the switcheroo. When they wind up celebrating their birthdays at the same restaurant, per Hallmark’s synopsis, “they make birthday wishes at the same time which are granted. However they end up getting each other’s wishes.”
Both Tennant and Foy are rising stars at Hallmark. Hallmarkies likely recognize Tennant from her supporting roles in “The Wedding March” movies, per IMDb, and her first starring role on Hallmark Channel, opposite Niall Matter, in 2023’s “Holiday Hotline.” She also had a significant role in 2024’s “All I Need For Christmas.” Foy, meanwhile, has co-starred in two recent Hallmark series — 2023’s “Ride” and 2024’s “The Chicken Sisters” — and the December Christmas movie “The Finnish Line.”
They may not be the only stars in “The Wish Swap,” though. “Signed Sealed Delivered” star Crystal Lowe shared an Instagram Story on January 3 that indicated she and “When Calls The Heart” star Pascale Hutton also make appearances in the movie.
