David and Tamela Mann are helping to get us in the Christmas spirit!
The husband and wife duo have a Christmas movie “Merry Wishmas” premiering on TV One Dec. 2nd.
Directed by veteran actress Terri J. Vaughn, the film also stars Kim Fields, Towanda Braxton, Chrystale Wilson and Elizabeth Omilami.
“Merry Wishmas” revolves around successful businesswoman, Kenni (Tamela Mann), who hasn’t returned home to the quaint town of Columbia, South Carolina in years. She’s hoping for a peaceful visit when she finally returns home, but unresolved family issues with her sister, Dionne (Wilson), and mother, Regina (Omilami), threaten to make the Christmas holiday not so bright.
She’s reacquainted with Jessie (David Mann), an old high school friend with a fledgling wellness facility – the Beverly Living Center. She’s instantly thrown into the lives of the center’s residents and meets a host of colorful characters including Celine (Fields) and Natalie (Braxton).
When Jessie is faced with losing the Beverly Living Center, Kenni steps in to try and help save it. Family conflicts and relationship woes, however, threaten Kenni’s efforts. It looks like only a miracle can save the center and mend broken relationships in time for Christmas. The film also features a cameo appearance by rap artist Yung Joc, best known for the popular singles “It’s Goin’ Down” and “I Know You See It.”
David and Tamela Mann also serve as executive producers for the movie.
