Luke Macfarlane fans rejoice! The Bros actor is set to star in a new LGBTQ+ inclusive romantic comedy for Hallmark. On 18 August, the popular network announced the return of its fan-favourite programming event, “Fall into Love.” One of the new films included in the lineup is Macfarlane’s romantic comedy Notes of Autumn, which also stars Ashley Williams, Peter Porte, and Marcus Rosner.
Executive-produced by singer Debbie Gibson, the film follows Ellie (Williams) and Leo (Macfarlane), two long-distance best friends whose respective lives have reached a standstill.
Ellie, a classically trained pianist, struggles with her mundane hotel job. At the same time, openly gay author Leo has hit an unfortunate case of writer’s block while working on the latest addition to his famous book series.
To recharge their creative muscles and get a change of scenery, the two friends agree to switch homes, with Emily heading to rural Canada and Leo migrating to the city.
