News and Notes About "A Very Merry Mix-Up" This movie originally premiered on November 10, 2013. Jonathan Wright directed “A Very Merry Mix-Up” and it was his second directorial project for Hallmark. He has since gone on to direct a total of 23 movies, a majority of them for Hallmark which include “True Justice: Family Ties,” “A Not So Royal Christmas” and “Family History Mysteries: Buried Past” as of recently. Barbara Kymlicka wrote the script. She currently has 67 writing credits and has written many Hallmark and Lifetime movies. The last couple of projects Kymlicka wrote included last year’s “The Secret Gift of Christmas” and all four episodes of “The Love Club.” Alicia Witt stars as Alice.

She has appeared in the TV series “Cybill,” “Friday Night Lights,” “Orange is the New Black” and “Nashville.” She is not only a TV actress, she’s appeared in theatrical movies like “Vanilla Sky” and “Two Weeks Notice.” Fun fact: Witt is a professional singer-songwriter and pianist. She released two Christmas songs in 2020 that appeared in a Hallmark movie she starred in called “Christmas Tree Lane.” In 2023, she appeared on “The Masked Singer” but was sadly eliminated after the second episode.
