TV One has announced that production is underway in Atlanta for the new original holiday movie, Merry Wish-Mas.

Starring Tamela Mann as Keneisha ‘Kenni’ Wright, a single and successful Atlanta businesswoman who hasn’t returned home for the holidays in years, she plays opposite her creative and life partner, husband David Mann, who plays Jessie Jenkins, an old high school friend. The two reunite at Jessie’s fledgling wellness facility, the Beverly Living Centre, where Kenni is reminded of the transformational power of love, hope and faith, amplified by the spirit of the holidays. The Manns also serve as executive producers on the project, which will premiere this winter on TV One.

“Heart-warming stories like Merry Wish-Mas that bring families together and make us laugh are as much a part of the season as Christmas trees and Santa himself,” said actress, director and producer Terri Vaughn, who makes her TV One original film directorial debut with the film. “And this movie, touching upon family conflicts, singlehood and love, money woes, and wishing for Christmas miracles, is set to become a highlight of the coming holidays.”

Written by Cas Sigers-Beedles, Merry Wish-Mas is executive produced for TV One by Roger Bobb and Angi Bones.
