ABOUT THE WRITER: Russell Hainline is a Duke University graduate who was once paid to record a rap song for a reality TV show— so he is, by definition, a professional rapper.
His first Netflix feature film, HOT FROSTY, starring Lacey Chabert, Dustin Milligan, Craig Robinson, and Joe Lo Truglio, is available right now! He will also have multiple new Christmas movies debut this year, including the hotly anticipated THREE WISER MEN & A BOY (11/23 on Hallmark), CHRISTMAS UNDER THE LIGHTS (11/27 on Hallmark Mystery), and THE SANTA CLASS (12/14 on Hallmark)!
Previous on Hallmark, he wrote THE SANTA SUMMIT in 2023 and IN MERRY MEASURE in 2022. Additionally, he co-wrote Lifetime’s WEB OF LIES in 2019. He also loves monster movies and once wrote a hard R-rated HUNGRY HIPPOS film.
If you love Christmas romances, monster movies, or just have a deep affinity for genre filmmaking in general, please reach out and contact him. He loves nothing more than chatting about movies.
