Lifetime's 2023 Christmas Movie Lineup Stars Tia Mowry, Teri Hatcher, Jana Kramer and More (Exclusive)

Christmas movie season is upon us, and for the folks who've been tracking the TV schedules like many are tracking Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's every move, one big player has yet to share its starting lineup — until now.

PEOPLE can exclusively reveal Lifetime's full "It's a Wonderful Lifetime" slate — and it's chock full of festive surprises.

In addition to the already hotly anticipated Ladies of the '80s: A Divas Christmas starring Donna Mills, Loni Anderson, Linda Gray, Morgan Fairchild and Nicollette Sheridan, the network will be rolling out another 11 new original movies starting Nov. 18.

Stars including Tia Mowry, Jana Kramer, Teri Hatcher, Vivica A. Fox, Buddy Valastro, Jackée Harry and Tatyana Ali will be making sure the twinkle lights are installed en masse and the stockings are hung by the chimneys with care this season.

Harry, Ali and Max Ehrich will all be singing new, original songs in their respective movies, and '80s pop sensation Tiffany will be providing the theme song for Ladies of the '80s.

And it wouldn't be Lifetime without a little mystery, so this year, LMN is launching its own debut thriller in December called, of course, Silent Night, Fatal Night.

Get the scoop on all 12 new, original It's a Wonderful Lifetime movies — and their premiere dates! — below. (All movies premiere at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Lifetime unless otherwise noted.)
