Hallmark Channel has always been known for its Christmas movies. However, they have made some Hanukkah movies for those who celebrate, and “Boy Meets World” star Ben Savage was even the star of one of them.
In 2020, he could be seen starring in the holiday film “Love, Lights, Hanukkah!” about a woman who, after years of solely celebrating Christmas, realizes that she’s actually Jewish after taking a DNA test. Throughout the course of the film, it is Savage’s character who, among others, helps her uncover her long-lost family and teaches her about Hanukkah’s origins and everything it entails. “For me, this was such a special script,” Savage shared during an interview on Home & Family. “It was a really lovely story about a family coming together and reuniting.”
Whether Hallmark Channel releases a new Christmas movie or one about what happens throughout the eight days of Hanukkah, Savage knows that every holiday that the network showcases on screen is bound to be a special one. “There’s many, many shared and similar traditions between many faiths,” Savage said. “But in the end, it really is about coming together, about families, about spending time together, and about shared traditions, so I think the story is kind of universal.”
