Toronto- and L.A.-based Chesler/Permutter Productions has begun production on Christmas Share, a MOW for CTV and Hallmark Channel in the U.S.

Christmas Share stars Tricia Helfer (Killer Women) and country singer JT Hodges as a brother and sister unlucky romance. Hodges character decides to sign up for a house swap website, and switches homes for the holidays with an ad firm owner, played by Mark Lutz. The swap leads everyone to true love at Christmas. Cristina Rosato also stars in the film.

Lewis Chesler, David Perlmutter and Robert Vaughn are exec producers, with Harvey Crossland directing.

Christmas Share is being distributed by Red Arrow International.

Chesler/Perlmutter also recently wrapped another Christmas-themed MOW, Christmas Star, starring Shannon Elizabeth.
