CROWN PRINCE OF CHRISTMAS is about Ruth Little’s daughter Madison, an aspiring musician, who jokingly tells her mom she is dating the prince of a small European nation. The joke goes too far and her friend/ co-worker Sebastian is roped into impersonating the prince while visiting her family in New Jersey. Little does Madison know that Sebastian happens to be hiding a royal secret.

When and where was Crown Prince of Christmas filmed ? If it was filmed during Covid , what changes were made to adapt in order to continue shooting ?
Crown Prince of Christmas filmed in Buffalo, NY during September. We were having a heat wave here in Los Angeles and stepping off the plane into 60 degree temps totally put me in the Christmas mood. COVID testing was done on a daily basis and masks were worn by everyone.

Tell us more about your role as Ruth Little .
Ruth Little owns a Christmas Shop called “Little Ornaments.” She is married with 3 daughters. She loves being a Mom and is very much a part of her daughters’ lives. She wants to see her eldest daughter Madison happy & fulfilling her dream of becoming a singer, so she encourages her to try-out for the Royal Gala Headliner. Ruth is a loving, compassionate & supportive Mom.
How did you prepare for the role ?
I was at a dinner party when the Casting Director emailed me a heads-up that I was the first choice of the Producers & Director. They just needed to get Network approval. I dismissed myself from the party and had that Casting Director send me the script immediately (because the film started shooting in a week)! I read it that night and thought it was adorable. The next day I booked the role. I printed-out all of my scenes, broke them down (objective, motivation, relationship), and started memorizing. I use an app called Off Book which let’s me record all the lines then mute my lines.
Anthony Ferrante, the director of Crown Prince of Christmas with Nancy Harding
What is your favorite holiday movie?
My favorite holiday movie is the classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” with Jimmy Stewart. I just love the message and Jimmy gives a powerful performance.
What can people expect when they watch the Crown Prince of Christmas?
Crown Prince of Christmas is a Christmas Movie, family film and love story. Cindy Busby plays my daughter Madison and is adorable to watch.
