Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson Were Spotted Filming Her New Christmas Musical in Dollywood
We know summer isn’t over yet, but we're already getting blessed with some Christmas miracles!
Dolly Parton has once again teamed up with NBC for a new Christmas movie that will appear on the network's 2022 holiday programming.
NBC announced in May that Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas will star the country music legend herself and described the special as a "modern-day movie musical about the making of a network TV special."
The latest update includes the star-studded cast that will join Dolly in the holiday cheer. Here's everything we know so far.
What will Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas be about?
Here's the official description: "Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas is the frenetic backstage story and delightful on-camera results of Dolly's desire to uplift an exhausted world's spirits by sharing the unique 'mountain magic' she has always found in and around Dollywood at Christmas. Throughout the movie's production numbers and rehearsal chaos, Dolly finds herself taking a private journey into her past, guided by the mysterious appearances of her personal Three Wise Men."
"When it's time for her big special to air live, a renewed and inspired Dolly goes rogue and shows the world that the real magic of Christmas lies in the hearts of the children we all once were, the realization that Christmas is about the people we share it with, and how her faith remains the common thread between Christmases past, present, and future."
Who's in the cast?
Dolly's new Christmas flick will feature country legend Willie Nelson! The two icons were recently spotted trolleying together on a golf cart around her famous theme park, Dollywood.
"We will be filming over the next few weeks, so you never know when Dolly or one of her friends will show up!" Dollywood PR Director Wes Ramey recently told Knox News.
But that's not all! Dolly's new Christmas movie is confirmed to feature other big names, like Jimmy Fallon, Billy Ray Cyrus, Miley Cyrus, Zach Williams, and Jimmie Allen.
When will Dolly's new Christmas movie premiere?
There is no official premiere date for the film, but you can count on The Pioneer Woman to update you as soon as we find out!
