Development
This marked Lopez's third project with Lifetime Channel, given the green light following their first two successful outings, Feliz NavivDAD and KFC sponsored short film (branded as a "mini-movie"), A Recipe for Seduction. It was one of four pitches made to the network in 2021.[2]
The film is Emeraude Toubia's first executive producer credit and led to her production company, The Emerald Co., to be signed with United Talent Agency.[3]
Filming
The movie was filmed entirely in Santa Fe, New Mexico in spring 2021.[4]
Toubia coincidentally shot Holiday in Santa Fe and Amazon Prime Video's holiday series, With Love back to back. Both Christmas-themed projects were released December 2021 with Toubia declared as "The New Queen of Christmas" by Variety.[5]
