Production has begun on “The Way Home,” Hallmark Channel’s new, original primetime series slated to premiere on the network in 2023. Andie MacDowell (“Maid,” “Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove“), Chyler Leigh (“Supergirl,” “Grey’s Anatomy“) and Sadie Laflamme-Snow (“The Apprentice“) star in this multigenerational family drama shooting on location in and around Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
“The Way Home” is a family drama following the lives of three generations of women – Kat Landry (Leigh), her 15-year-old daughter Alice (Laflamme-Snow), and Kat’s mother Del (MacDowell), who are all strong, willful, and independent. More than 20 years prior, lifechanging events prompted Kat to move away from her small, Canadian farm town of Port Haven and she remains estranged from Del to this day. Alice has never met her grandmother and is unaware of the reasons for their fractured family. With Kat’s marriage coming to an end and having just been laid off from her job, she decides to return home after receiving an unexpected letter from Del urging her to come back. Although Alice is none-too-thrilled, Kat and her daughter arrive at her family’s farm, though the reunion isn’t what Kat had envisioned. As the three generations of women slowly work on finding their footing as a family, they embark on an enlightening – and surprising – journey none of them could have imagined as they learn how to find their way back to each other.
“The Way Home” is executive produced by Marly Reed, Arnie Zipursky, and Lauren MacKinlay for Neshama Entertainment; Larry Grimaldi, Hannah Pillemer, and Fernando Szew for MarVista Entertainment; and Heather Conkie, Alexandra Clarke, Andie MacDowell, and Chyler Leigh.
