A Christmas Less Traveled on Great American Family
Production has wrapped on what is sure to be among the most anticipated new movies in the network’s Great American Christmas 2024. Meanwhile, Candace Cameron Bure (My Christmas Hero, A Christmas Present) leads the movie alongside Eric Johnson (Flash Gordon, Call Me Mrs. Miracle).
According to the official synopsis, The Dine and Dash Diner has mounting unpaid bills. This forces its owner, Desi (Bure) to sell the mint condition, cherry red 1964 Ford F-100 truck, a beloved gift from her deceased father.
However, as she visits the vintage truck for the last time, she finds a recorded message from her dad on an old audio cassette tape. Hearing her dad’s voice again sends Desi and “Old Red” out on the road to retrace her family’s most memorable moments one last time.
However, as her journey into memories begins, Desi meets Greyson (Johnson), who offers her a generous payment in exchange for a ride to close the most important deal of his life. However, little do Desi and Greyson realize that the less traveled road will reveal so much about each of them than they could ever have imagined.

Meanwhile, the movie’s executive producer and Candy Rock Entertainment CEO Candace Cameron Bure added:
A Christmas Less Traveled gently challenges us to truly embrace every moment we share with our families, friends and loved ones. It reminds us that forgiving ourselves and others is the pathway to set ourselves free.
