Get ready for a serious holiday surprise: General Hospital's Donna Mills (ex-Madeline Reeves) playing a good mother!
It may be tough for GH fans to imagine, considering the fact Madeline pretty much flunked everything maternal, but Mills has taken on a new attitude when it comes to motherhood in Hallmark's upcoming holiday film 12 Gifts of Christmas.
The movie, which premieres on Thanksgiving Day, tells the story of Anna (Katrina Law), an unemployed painter who's hired to become a personal Christmas shopper for Marc (Aaron O'Connell), an uptight corporate executive. As they work together, Marc learns that Christmas giving has less to do with the amount of money spent and more to do with the importance of the gift, while Anna discovers she might find success as an artist in a way she never expected. Mills portrays Marc's mother, Joyce -- who is reportedly a far cry from train wreck Madeline.
Catch Mills, who last appeared on GH earlier this year, following the death of Silas Clay (Michael Easton), in the premiere of 12 Gifts of Christmas on Thursday, November 26, at 8/7C on Hallmark.
UPDATE:
If you missed the Thanksgiving showing, it will air again on November 30, and December 2, 5, and 6 on the Hallmark Channel. Check your local listings for the time, channel, and additional broadcasts.
