Moments From The Golden Globes That Made Our Jaws Drop

A Christmas Wish

We're starting strong with my personal favorite movie on this list, A Christmas Wish! The film follows Faith (Hilarie Burton), who reluctantly takes part in a hometown tradition by making a Christmas wish for true love. But when the wish starts to come true, with both lovely and chaotic consequences, Faith has to figure out what destiny really means. You can stream the movie on YouTube and Disney+. The movie also stars Megan Park, Tyler Hilton, Lee Norris, and Colin Fickes.

The Christmas Contract

Hilarie Burton plays another woman in the throes of heartbreak for The Christmas Contract. Her character Jolie returns home for the holidays, where her best friend Naomi (Danneel Ackles) presents her with a very interesting idea: to pretend date her brother Jack...Christmas contract and all. You can stream the movie on Tubi and Lifetime. The cast also includes Robert Buckley, Antwon Tanner, and Tyler Hilton.

Write Before Christmas

Lucas and Nannie Carrie sure are cozy in this Christmas movie. JK, it's just Chad Michael Murray and Torrey Joël DeVitto! When Jessica's partner dumps her before Christmas, she meets up with her past music teacher's son to take some meaningful Christmas cards for her loved ones. The movie also stars Drew Seeley, Grant Show, and Lanie McAuley, and you can stream it now on Hallmark+.

Christmas In Lousiana

Jana Kramer's Sarah (whose name happens to be Winter. Naturally.) returns to her home in Louisana for their Sugarcane Christmas Festival — and any holiday magic it might have in store. Christmas in Louisiana also stars One Tree Hill's Moira Kelly alongside Dee Wallace, Percy Daggs III, and Barry Bostwick, and is available to stream on Tubi.

The Holiday Fix Up

Did you forget about Maria Menounos' stint on One Tree Hill? Because I sure did. On the series, she played Keith's love interest, but in this holiday movie, she stars alongside Jana Kramer, whose character Sam help renovate her hometown's inn...with the contractor who broke her heart. You can stream The Holiday Fix Up on Hulu and Lifetime. The movie also stars Ryan McPartlin, Steve Vinovich, Keven Undergaro, and Brian Sills.

Five Star Christmas

One of my favorite Hallmark movies ever stars Bethany Joy Lenz, whose character Lucy (along with her siblings) works to help their dad's bed and breakfast get a 5-star review by pretending to be a guest. The only hiccup? The critic's identity is a secret...and Lucy can't tell the other guests who she really is. Stream this movie on Hallmark+ to see Bethany alongside Victor Webster, Robert Wisden, Laura Soltis, Jay Brazeau, Grace Beedie, Barbara Patrick, and Blair Penner.

Hometown Christmas

This Christmas movie will make your little CW drama heart sing! Stephen Colletti (who played Chase on One Tree Hill and actually starred in Taylor Swift's "White Horse" music video) stars opposite 7th Heaven's Beverly Mitchell as ex high school sweethearts who have to team up to put on the town's live nativity. You can stream the movie on Tubi and Disney+. The cast also includes Erin Cahill, Brian McNamara, and Melissa Gilbert.

The Merry Gentlemen is on Netflix now, and stars Britt Robertson, who's determined to bring life back to her parents' business, and Chad Michael Murray, who agrees to help. Their plan is simple: create a male revue show that heats things up (and brings in the dollars). You'll also see Marla Sokoloff, Beth Broderick, and Colt Prattes!

A Welcome Home Christmas

Jana Kramer's Chloe finds herself paired with veteran Michael (Brandon Quinn) to recruit others from around their hometown for the Army's holiday toy drive — and the Officer's Christmas Ball. You can stream A Welcome Home Christmas on Lifetime and see Tim Reid, Rose Reid, Charlene Tilton, and Craig Morgan.

Angel Falls Christmas

If this movie looks remotely familiar, it might be because it went viral for Chad Michael Murray's fake ice skating. And you know what? I love it. The movie follows a doctor who needs a little ~heavenly~ help to get in the Christmas spirit. Angel Falls Christmas stars Jessica Lowndes, Samora Smallwood, David Reale, and Deborah Tennant.

What is The Chosen season 5 about?

The Chosen Season 5 Plot

Season 5 of The Chosen picks up right where season 4 leaves off: with Jesus entering Jerusalem for Passover, with "The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king while his disciples anticipate his crowning," according to the official synopsis. And when Jesus calls out the religious leaders of the day, they decide to "go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last."

And the major question of the season, according to Dallas, is "What happens in the course of just a few days that causes people to go from worshipping him to wanting him killed?” he tells USA Today.

Is Jesus crucified in season 5 of The Chosen?

No, The Chosen season 5 won't feature Good Friday, or the crucifixion, because we know that's coming in The Chosen season 6. Dallas Jenkins told Deadline that the crucifixion will come in "season six and the resurrection will occur in season seven. Spoiler alert!" He also told Variety that "the entire Season 6 will cover one day, so covering one week in Season 5 feels luxurious.”

That is CRAZY! If the entire multi-episode season will revolve around Good Friday, then we could see it from a variety of characters' points of view. I've always been so heartbroken by the emotions and devastation that came after Jesus' crucifixion, and it looks like The Chosen season 6 won't shy away from that.

Dallas also reveals the season 5 finale will end right before Jesus' arrest, which came in the middle of the night between Thursday and Friday. And he promises "no one’s ever seen what we’ve got planned for that sequence." Season 3 featured Pontius Pilate's wife dreaming about the Garden and a snake, which feels like it could come full circle.

When is The Chosen season 5 coming out?

The Chosen Season 5 Release Date

The Chosen season 5 will premiere in theaters on March 27, 2025 and will release over the course of four weeks before streaming on The Chosen app where viewers can watch it for free.

Who's in the cast?

The Chosen Season 5 Cast

The cast of The Chosen season 5 includes Jonathan Roumie, Shahar Isaac, Paras Patel, Elizabeth Tabish, Noah James, George H. Xanthis, Abe Bueno-Jallad, Jordan Walker Ross, Giavani Cairo, Joey Vahedi, Alaa Safi, Reza Diako, Austin Reed Alleman, Vanessa Benavente, Lara Silva, Luke Dimyan, Amber Shana Williams, and Yasmine Al-Bustami.

How many seasons of The Chosen are being made?

There will be a total of seven seasons of The Chosen. Since season 5 is coming out in 2025 after season 4 in 2024, we can expect season 6 in 2026 and season 7 in 2027.

Why did Philip leave The Chosen?

If you watch seasons 2 and 3 of The Chosen and then start season 4, you might realize one of the disciples looks different. That's because Yoshi Barrigas (who originally played Philip) ended up leaving the show, and was replaced by Reza Diakos.

"For professional and personal reasons I will no longer be a part of The Chosen," he said on Instagram at the time. "First and foremost I want to thank you, the fans. Our connection and your constant showering of love and support has seeded me with a warmth that will forever nourish me. Meeting you out in the world and hearing how the show has personally enriched your lives continues to be the connective tissue between me and the good folk of this world. You inspire me to continue to die to self and discover The Way. I hope you continue to follow my journey. I have a lot more to share with you."

Materials + Tools:

• 1 roll of tin foil
• 2 packages of crescent rolls
• 1 egg (for egg wash before cornucopia goes into the oven), optional

Instructions:

Start by sculpting tin foil into the shape of a cornucopia (it looks like a cone with an upturned tail). Pro tip: Lightly pack tin foil so it's easier to remove later from your baked cornucopia. Crescent rolls should be buttery enough that this shouldn't be difficult.
