/by

Tanya Tucker is making her acting debut in the lead role of her first original movie, A Nashville Country Christmas, airing on Dec. 12 at 7 p.m. CT on Paramount Network.

Tucker portrays country superstar Josie Carson in the new holiday film as she bolts from her outrageous lifestyle, and seeks a haven at her grandma’s Tennessee farm outside of Nashville. Rather than refuge, she finds romance there, reconnects with her ex–played by Academy Award-winner Keith Carradine–returns to her musical roots, and finds an unexpected family when she discovers three kids who’ve outsmarted the foster care system are living at the family farm at Christmas.

“It’s amazing that after 50 years in this business, I get to see my dreams become reality! And being part of A Nashville Country Christmas is definitely one of them,” Tucker shares. “I’ve always wanted to do more acting, and it was a gift from the good Lord when this role came along. I can’t wait for everyone to enjoy the movie this season.”

The movie will also air in an encore presentation on Christmas Day at 10 a.m. CT on CMT. The day after the premiere, A Nashville Country Christmas will be available on ParamountNetwork.com, the Paramount Network App, Paramount Network VOD and additional platforms, including Amazon, Vudu, etc.
