Rachael Leigh Cook Stars as a Woman Who Tries to Fix the Holidays in Hallmark's 'Rescuing Christmas'

We can all get a little frustrated during the holiday season. There are too many errands to run, too many presents to buy (and not enough money), too many parties to attend, too many Christmas movies—wait, scratch that last one. What if there was no Christmas at all? What if Christmas never existed and there were no colorful lights, caroling or Christmas cards? Hallmark Channel's latest Christmas in July movie, Rescuing Christmas , asks that question when a woman wishes the holiday never existed and her wish comes true.

Here's everything we know about Hallmark's Rescuing Christmas , starring Rachel Leigh Cook , including a Parade exclusive sneak peek.

What is Rescuing Christmas about?

Still reeling from a breakup last Christmas, talented freelance photographer Erin Smithson ( Rachael Leigh Cook ) is feeling less than festive as the holidays approach. Unbeknownst to her, Santa ( T. Mychael Rambo ) has agreed to grant three magical Christmas wishes to one lucky recipient in desperate need of some holiday cheer. Believing the constant emails she receives advising she is the lucky winner are spam, Erin wants nothing to do with the Operation Wish program or Santa’s two elves, Chuck ( Patrick O’Brien ) and Debbie ( Bailey Stender ), who are running it. With the countdown to Christmas day fast approaching, completely frustrated by everyone being in the holiday spirit, Erin makes the rashest wish of all—that Christmas never existed. It’s a wish that has more consequences than she ever imagined, as she’s now the only person in the world to remember what Christmas was. With the aid of Sam ( Sam Page ), a recent blind date set-up, Erin reintroduces her family to the holiday traditions she remembers and loved growing up. With just days to go until Christmas Eve, can a little elf magic, combined with Sam’s belief in her, be enough for Erin to revive the forgotten holiday, and possibly receive the greatest gift of all—love?
