Hallmark is back in the TV show game with “The Way Home.”
They’re really generous people and coworkers, so it’s been the most brilliant experience.
I love multi-generational, women-centric projects like this one.
That’s what you get from working with pros like Andy and Chyler.
It’s been such an honor.
Laflamme-Snow:Those parts of the show are going to be exciting for the audience.
We got along so well.
We had the best time.
Evan Williams:Andie and Chyler are such classic actors.
They’re storied, they have great careers, and they know what it’s like to be professional.
I was excited to work with them from the top.
you’re free to tell a real pro because of how generous they are with others.
I’m looking forward to sharing them with audiences, and I think people are going to enjoy it.
The showrunners mentioned that they’d done a lot of ad-libbing.
Have you gotten the chance to do that with them at all?
I did a lot of ad-libbing.
You were in some pretty big films like “Blonde” and “Escape Room.”
Are there any co-stars from those projects that you’d love to see come on the show?
She was one of the most outstanding scene partners I’ve ever had and took my breath away.
Any chance to work with her again, I would take it.
It’s a tribe [in] that we all share the storytelling things.
I’d like to bring them all along [and] bring them all on the show.
What do you think it is about these family-focused, small-town stories that connect so deeply with fans?
Williams:This show will connect with fans because it has real stakes.
It talks about real issues of the heart, and it’s not necessarily always glittering and happy.
Hallmark audiences are hungering for storytelling that has stakes and that has repercussions.
This show is the perfect segue into that jot down of storytelling.
“The Way Home” premieres on Hallmark on Sunday, January 15 at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT.
