  • Tia Mowry-Hardrict and Duane Henry Star in ‘A Gingerbread Romance’ a New, Original Movie Premiering December 16 on Hallmark Channel
    TIA MOWRY-HARDRICT AND DUANE HENRY STAR IN ‘A GINGERBREAD ROMANCE’ A NEW, ORIGINAL MOVIE PREMIERING DECEMBER 16 ON HALLMARK CHANNEL Part of the Network’s #1-Rated Annual “Countdown to Christmas” Programming Event STUDIO CITY – Tia Mowry-Hardrict (“The Game,” “Sister, Sister”) and Duane Henry (“NCIS,” “Doctors”) combine sugar, spice and a love story so nice in “A Gingerbread Romance,” a new, original movie premiering Sunday, December 16 (8 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Channel. This charming holiday love story is part of Hallmark Channel’s #1-rated annual programming event, COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS. With this popular annual event, Hallmark Channel is historically the #1 television network in all of Q4. Successful architect Taylor Scott (Mowry-Hardrict) is poised for a promotion and a move to Paris, but her boss has an unusual request before making a decision about her career: Taylor must partner with a baker to create a life sized gingerbread house. Though this task is festive, it is also high stakes as she will represent her firm against their rivals in a competition judged by the mayor. Taylor partners with pastry chef Adam Dale (Henry), and though their styles are very different, the two connect and build chemistry while working together. She even starts to feel a sense of home for the first time in her life with Adam and his daughter, while at the same time inspiring Adam to follow his own career dreams. After hearing news from her boss about the Paris promotion, Taylor is torn about the decision. As the competition and Christmas Eve near, Taylor must choose between making a move to Paris and building a life and home with Adam.
