While some stars are jumping ship to GAC Family, Hallmark Channel is making sure it keeps some of its most popular actors.

While Hallmark is happy to keep him, Brennan is more than happy to sign up for more original movies for the network.

Hallmark Channel  News – Brennan Elliott’s History With Hallmark Channel

Brennan first starred on Hallmark Channel as the villainous Warren Saget in the network’s first original series, Cedar Cove. Since then, he has also appeared in non-Hallmark-related offerings, like UnREAL, Flashpoint and Hawaii Five-Oh. However, Elliott has more recently appeared in Hallmark’s The Perfect Pairing, opposite Nazneen Contractor, and Open by Christmas with Alison Sweeney.

Speaking of his new multi-picture contract, Brennan said it has been a dream to have worked with the “wonderfully creative and supportive team at Hallmark over the years.” He continued, saying, “I’m thrilled to continue this relationship that’s meant so much to me and have the opportunity to bring to life new characters and tell stories that will make people smile.”

No doubt, his fans will be equally thrilled that they can continue to see the handsome actor on Hallmark.

The network’s latest move comes after former Hallmark Channel President and CEO Bill Abbott has taken some of its biggest stars. Among those who jumped ship are Danica McKellar, Trevor Donovan, Jen Lilley and Jessica Lowndes, who have all moved over to the new GAC Family network.
