Chris McNally’s Impressive Roles on the Hallmark Channel
McNally joined the cast of “WCTH” in 2019 during season 6 as the charming saloon owner. As the episodes continue in season 13, McNally and Edie Martell, played by Miranda MacDougall, lean into their romantic feelings for each other. But with the arrival of Edie’s ex-fiancé, Fernando, in Hope Valley, Lucas becomes unsure of just how serious Edie might feel for him after all.
McNally’s presence on the Hallmark Channel has landed him many significant roles in the network’s films, including “Hearts of Christmas” (2016), “Rocky Mountain Christmas” (2017), “The Sweetest Heart” (2019), “Snowkissed” (2021), “A Tail of Love” (2022), “3 Bed, 2 Bath, 1 Ghost” (2023) and more, according to his IMDb.
He has also starred in the Hallmark Mystery Classic “Eat, Drink, & Be Buried: A Gourmet Detective Mystery.” The 2017 film featured McNally as a dysfunctional family member named Douglas who helps navigate a family feud in order to find out the motive of a mysterious killer, according to the Hallmark Channel.
Chris McNally is great in the Hallmark movie “Two for Tee” with Janel Parrish. He and Janel have great chemistry and are wonderful in this movie together! Love how he’s encouraging and supportive of her art. He knows who he is and what he wants in life and helps her to find the same. Loved it!
