Heartstrings was nominated for an Emmy and a GLAAD Award. Now she’s got a Christmas movie in the works costarring two other LGBTQ+ icons — Jenifer Lewis and Christine Baranski.
And another longtime ally, Debbie Allen is directing it. Christmas on the Square, set for release November 22, stars Parton as a literal angel who changes the heart and mind of Baranski’s greedy Regina.
Upon her father’s death, Regina returns to her hometown, where she plans to evict the townsfolk and sell the land to a developer set on building a mall, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
