Actress Jen Lilley chatted about her latest Great American Family movie “A Little Women’s Christmas,” as well as the 2024 Christmas Con in New Jersey, and the Great American Family Christmas Festival.
2024 Christmas Con
The 2024 Christmas Con was held at the New Jersey Convention and Exposition Center in Edison, and Lilley participated in red carpet interviews.
“Obviously, it is exciting to be here,” Lilley said about Christmas Con. “I brought my full sparkle to show my full excitement. I love Christmas Con, and I am a fan of it. I can’t believe they have me; they just let me in every year.”
‘A Little Women’s Christmas’ film
She was one of the stars of “A Little Women’s Christmas” on Great American Family.
“It was an incredible experience,” she noted. “I love Trevor Donovan; the fact that Trevor was in it was one of the reasons that I wanted to do it. With Jesse Hutch and Trevor Donovan, I was in!”
“Then, I got to meet Jillian Murray, and I got to work with Laura Osnes; she is amazing. Julia Reilly was great too. Our ensemble cast was incredible,” she added.
“We had Gladys Knight for this epic song. She is the ‘Empress of Soul,’ she is higher than a queen. Overall, it was an amazing movie, and Charlize Hutch, Jesse’s daughter played my daughter in the movie, and she made her acting debut, so it was just a magical experience.”
