Summary
BrothersLuke, Taylor,andStephanare back.
COLLIDER: So congratulations onThree Wiser Men and a Boy.Andrew, I’ll start with you.
This is the sequel toThree Wise Men and a Baby.
You know, maybe numbers will drop off once they watch 30 minutes of it.
Or maybe they won’t.
Maybe we’ll start getting more viewers for this one.
People liked the first one.
Its tough writing a sequel.
This guy had a - him and Kimberly - had a really big mountain to climb in this one.
PAUL CAMPBELL: It was super ambitious.
WALKER: It’s a very ambitious Christmas movie as well
TYLER HYNES: Theres laser tag.
And spandex candy cane suits.
The budget was through the roof.
WALKER: Arcade dancing
HYNES: Arcade dancing
CAMPBELL: Kids, children.
COLLIDER: It wouldn’t be Christmas without the children.
HYNES: You gotta water them.
CAMPBELL: You gotta water them, you gotta feed them…Youre thinking about plants.
COLLIDER: Well, Paul.
So, the story picks up 5 years later.
So obviously, the baby is no longer a baby.
He’s a boy, a growing boy.
So tell us about the dynamics of your fatherhood, collective fatherhood situation.
And how things have changed.
HYNES: I like that, collective fatherhood.
CAMPBELL: Oh, that’s a great question.
COLLIDER: I mean, it takes a village.
HYNES: Yeah, it does.
CAMPBELL: Well, it does.
And the Miles that ended up being cast in this movie is extraordinary.
WALKER: AKA a young Brando.
CAMPBELL: He’s a little Brando’s he’s just this magic magical little boy.
And I think as brothers, we have all contributed in shaping him.
And typically that would be mom or dad that would go, Let me talk to you about this.
But in that moment, Uncle Taylor says, I got this.
I have a unique perspective.
I think we find that as parents in our own lives.
Hallmark’s first-ever holiday mystery series is here!
WALKER: It’s OK to accept the help.
COLLIDER: Yes, and sometimes as a parent you need that break like, Go ask your aunt.
HYNES: As a parent, I relate.
WALKER: Are you a parent?
I don’t want to get involved.
I can’t answer that question for you.
So I definitely understand the whole idea of having a village, especially as they grow because.
Now Tyler, this story is already interesting because you guys have a unique familial dynamic.
How does that add to the already chaotic situation that you guys are in?
HYNES: I mean Pastor Roy just coming in and messing it all up.
We’re grown men.
Mom’s got a new boyfriend.
We had we had so much fun evolving the characters and sort of devolving them at the same time.
And that sort os sends us all in these various directions.
The Pastor Roy was great because it gave us a different man to play off.
WALKER: And it’s interesting because we all break apart and find that safety in other things.
Thomas is my safety and my home life is my safety.
Your safety was Fiona.
ALL: Youre my safety.
We have some Christmas series for the first time.
HYNES: It feels good, potentially?
What are we getting fired?
HYNES: Where we just raise children?
CAMPBELL: No, that’s just called reality.
WALKER: Tyler raising other people’s kids.
COLLIDER: During the holidays, give the parents a break.
CAMBPELL: We can do a reality show where do parenting.
We go in and we go in and teach people how to parent.
HYNES: It sounds like a bad idea.
CAMPELL: Its called The Mannies.
WALKER: Its likeQueer Eyebut were the three guys that have to come in and fix it up.
CAMPBELL: Straight Eye?
HYNES: It feels great [to be part of the expansion].
WALKER: You’re talking to guys that have been part of this internet for a long time.
And it is the most exciting time to be at the connection right now.
CAMPBELL: From a storytelling perspective, it feels like the sky is the limit.
Hallmark has diversified so in terms of the types of stories.
