    FRANKLIN, Tenn. (WKRN) — A new Christmas movie adapted from Louisa May Alcott’s 1868 classic, “Little Women,” is filming in Williamson County this month.

    The movie is called “A Little Women’s Christmas,” directed by Brandon Clark, and it’s set to premiere on the Great American Family network this holiday season.

    According to the network, “A Little Women’s Christmas” is a contemporary retelling of the novel, following the lives and loves of the March sisters in a small Tennessee town at Christmas.

    The cast and crew is currently shooting in Franklin. Clark said the the quaint and charming atmosphere of the city’s public square felt like the perfect fit for the film.

    “My parents moved here about four years ago, so I came to visit during Christmas,” said Clark. “I was like, ‘Wow, this place can really embrace Christmas at a different level.’ It’s got it’s cute quaintness, but it’s like they brought Christmas to life, and so it just inspired me on a new vision for the script.”

    The movie features footage from Franklin’s 2023 Christmas tree lighting and the recent winter snowfall.
