Kansas City Chiefs and Hallmark Team Up for Christmas Rom-Com 'Holiday Touchdown'
The Kansas City Chiefs are partnering with Hallmark to create a holiday film, "Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story," celebrating their back-to-back Super Bowl victories. Filming starts next month in Kansas City, Missouri, including scenes at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. Chiefs President Mark Donovan highlights the collaboration as a chance to unite passionate fanbases and showcase Chiefs Kingdom's spirit. The city honored the project by lighting up its downtown skyline purple and red. The film stars Tyler Hynes, Hunter King, and Ed Begley Jr. It follows Chiefs superfan Alana Higman (King) vying for the Fan of the Year contest and her romantic tension with fan engagement director Derrick (Hynes). Alana's grandfather (Begley Jr.) losing his vintage Chiefs hat adds to the holiday drama. The collaboration aligns with Hallmark's viewership, with over half watching sports during the holidays. Hallmark's Chief Brand Officer Darren Abbott praises the blend of storytelling and football excitement.
