Hallmark is making a movie inspired by the love story of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce – yep, you heard that right!
It’s not one of your Wildest Dreams, the NFL and Hallmark are producing a romance movie together, and it’s said Taylor Swift‘s relationship with Travis Kelce is to blame.
The 34-year-olds, who broke the internet when the celebrity first appeared at Arrowhead Stadium last September, are said to be the inspiration for the flick.
A press release from Kansas City Chiefs revealed the movie will be called Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story, with Hallmark also confirming the collaboration.

What is the ‘Taylor and Travis’ Hallmark movie about?
The synopsis for Holiday Touchdown follows Alana Higman, who wants to win a contest.
Alana is ‘“sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s ‘Fan of the Year’ contest.”
“Derrick, Director of Fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating how Alana and her family stack up against the other two finalists,” it continues.
“As the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them but when her grandfather’s vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary.”
Hunter King, from Two Scoops of Italy and Santa Summit is playing Alana, while Tyler Hynes is cast as Derrick.
Better Call Saul and Young Sheldon star Ed Begley Jr is featuring as Alana’s grandpop.

“With Hallmark and the Kansas City Chiefs both homegrown, rooted in values, tradition and community, there is a special alchemy between these two iconic organizations,” Darren Abbott, Chief Brand Officer of Hallmark, said.
“By blending the warmth of Hallmark storytelling with the excitement of professional football, we are thrilled to give audiences a front-row seat to this community’s spirit, rich traditions and passionate fans that define Kansas City, all wrapped up in the comforting and uplifting Hallmark way.”
Mark Donovan, president of the red and gold Super Bowl champions said they were ‘honored’ to partner with the channel.
“As a club, we pride ourselves on exploring new ways to grow our brand, as well as connect with new audiences,” Mark added. “This partnership unites two passionate fanbases and gives us an opportunity to show Chiefs Kingdom’s energy and tradition on one of the most-watched channels during the holiday season.”
