Hallmark Channel Original Movie Crown For Christmas premieres Friday, November 27 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The holiday film stars Danica McKellar and Rupert Penry-Jones.

Allie (McKellar), a fired maid from a ritzy NYC hotel, takes a job as a governess to a young girl who is part of a powerful family in Europe. After reluctantly accepting, and upon arrival at the castle, learns the girl is Princess Theodora (Ellie Botterill) and that her father is Maximillion (Penry-Jones), the King of Winshire. Max informs Allie that the Princess prides herself on terrorizing authority figures and has gotten worse since her mother's death. As the story unfolds, we see Allie bond with Theodora and also helps to bring Theodora and her father together. And through all of this, a spark forms between Allie and Max.

Crown For Christmas was directed by Alex Zamm, and written by Tippi Dobrofsky and Neal Dobrofsky.
