Since her time as Summer Newman on The Young and the Restless, Hunter King has kept busy with several Hallmark projects. One of her latest films has a surprising Taylor Swift connection.

Look What You Made Me Do

Hallmark took to Facebook to promote its upcoming film, Holiday Touchdown: A Kansas City Chiefs Love Story. Obviously, Taylor Swift is dating Chiefs star Travis Kelce, and the upcoming movie has his mom, Donna Kelce, in the cast alongside Hunter King and Tyler Hynes.

“Look who’s joining Hunter King and Tyler Hynes in #HolidayTouchdown: A The Kansas City Chiefs Love Story! Please welcome America’s football mom #DonnaKelce to the cast. Don’t miss the world premiere later this year during #CountdownToChristmas. 🏈🎄”

The movie is about Alana Higman (King), a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan, and her family. The group competes to win the team’s Fan of the Year contest. The competition is judged by the director of fan engagement, Derrick (Hynes).

The movie is part of Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas event later this year. It’s not clear at this time if King managed to meet Taylor Swift during the filming of the movie, but it’s obvious that she did meet Travis Kelce’s mom. Who knows what could happen in the future? Are you excited to catch this movie this holiday season?
