Lightly Inspired by the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance, „Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story“ is about passionate football fans, and you don’t have to be a Chiefs fan to enjoy it.
Julie Sherman Wolfe wants to be clear, as she says, “I’ll start with the Taylor and Travis thing. As far as informing the movie goes, that was sort of a jumping off point.”
She’s talking about the new Hallmark movie “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story.”
And, of course, she’s referring to supercouple, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce and superstar singer Taylor Swift and their well-documented romance.
But, the movie isn’t about a performer and a player, it’s about Chiefs superfan Alana who’s trying to win the Fan of the Year Award as a Christmas gift for her family, while falling in love with someone in the Chiefs front office along the way.
The movie stars Hunter King as Alana, Tyler Hynes, Ed Begley Jr., and Diedrich Bader, and features Travis Kelce’s mom, Donna, as well. Sherman Wolfe wrote the film.
King says, “I mean, I’m a Swiftie. I don’t know who isn’t a Swiftie. So we’ll take all the Swifties we can get, right?”
But, as it turns out, King is also a huge fan of the sport as well. “I grew up loving football. I was a really big Peyton Manning fan and I would YouTube his videos on how to throw a football.
