Kristin Chenoweth to Star in Lifetime’s 12 Men of Christmas
Emmy Award winner and Tony Award winner Kristin Chenoweth will star in the Lifetime movie 12 Men of Christmas, to debut on Saturday, December 5.
She will play E.J. Baxter, a New York City publicist who ends up moving to Montana, where she convinces some local men to pose for a charity calendar, and finds love in the process. The film co-stars Josh Hopkins, as well as stage actors Erin Dilly and Anna Chlumsky.
Chenoweth won the Tony Award for You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown and received a Tony nomination for Wicked. She is appearing Off-Broadway in Love, Loss, and What I Wore and will return to Broadway next year in Promises, Promises. Chenoweth won the 2009 Emmy Award for her work in the now-canceled ABC series Pushing Daisies, and played April Rhodes earlier this season on FOX’s Glee, to which she will return in 2010.
