While spring has just begun, Great American Family is already spreading some holiday cheer by announcing their upcoming Christmas programming featuring Candace Cameron Bure in a new heartwarming film.

Candace Cameron Bure To Headline New Christmas Film

Great American Family has revealed that Candace Cameron Bure will star in “Timeless Tidings of Joy,” a new Christmas movie set to premiere during the 2024 holiday season. According to the announcement shared on the network’s Instagram, the film will tell “the story of how one special message can change lives – even decades later.”

Bill Abbott, CEO of Great American Media, praised the actress in the announcement, stating: “Candace Cameron Bure is a superb storyteller and star, and Timeless Tidings of Joy tells the story of how one special message can change lives – even decades later.”

The post indicates that while it’s only April, the network is already building excitement for their Christmas season premieres, which will be available on both Great American Family channel and Pure Flix streaming service.

A Christmas Movie Queen

This announcement continues Bure’s reign as one of the most recognizable faces of holiday programming. The 48-year-old actress has become synonymous with Christmas films over the years, previously starring in numerous holiday movies for Hallmark Channel before making the switch to Great American Family in 2022.

Bure’s move to Great American Family came after signing a deal with the network to develop, produce, and star in movies and television shows. She also took on an executive role at the company, overseeing programming and creative content.

Beyond The Christmas Lights

Beyond her holiday film career, Candace Cameron Bure remains active across multiple entertainment fronts. She rose to fame for her role as D.J. Tanner on the popular sitcom “Full House” (1987–1995) and later reprised the role in the Netflix sequel series “Fuller House” (2016–2020).

Bure has also competed on “Dancing with the Stars,” co-hosted “The View,” and authored multiple books. Her faith plays a central role in both her personal life and career choices, often gravitating toward family-friendly content that aligns with her Christian values.

Family And Faith Remain Central

Recent posts on Bure’s Instagram account highlight her dedication to her faith. On Easter Sunday, she shared a heartfelt message with her followers: “Happy Easter!! Such a beautiful day to celebrate. Because of Jesus, we have hope, joy, and the promise of forever. He is risen, and that changes everything!❤️”

She also recently paid tribute to her siblings on National Siblings Day, sharing throwback photos with the caption, “The original ‘squad’ ❤️ #nationalsiblingsday #tbt.” Candace is the younger sister of actor Kirk Cameron, known for his role in “Growing Pains” and subsequent faith-based films.

In another post that showcased her personal values, Bure shared the simple but meaningful message: “Kindness is always in style!😘” The actress frequently uses her platform to promote positivity and faith-based messages to her 5.6 million Instagram followers.

Expanding Holiday Programming

While details about the plot of “Timeless Tidings of Joy” remain limited, the film appears to continue Great American Family’s focus on heartwarming, family-friendly holiday content. The network has been positioning itself as a destination for seasonal programming, particularly targeting viewers looking for traditional Christmas stories.

The announcement comes as networks and streaming services continue to expand their holiday content offerings, recognizing the growing demand for festive programming during the Christmas season. Great American Family, founded in 2021, has been steadily building its library of original content with Bure as one of its flagship stars.

Fans of Bure and Christmas movies alike will have to wait several months for more details about the film, but the early announcement suggests the network is confident in the project’s appeal to its target audience.
