Hallmark star Dan Jeannotte continued explaining the surprising inner workings of a Christmas movie in his exclusive interview with The List, revealing, "If you're watching a theme that's got snow, chances are that snow is either like a carpet of cotton that's been rolled out across somebody's green grass lawn or it's this kind of foamy spray stuff that they spray or have a hose that they spray onto trees to make it look like snow when really [...] it's probably August and it's probably really hot outside."
The in-demand actor also starred in Hallmark's "Paris, Wine, and Romance" in 2019, alongside soap alum Jen Lilley. "I remember very clearly the first moment I met her," he said, explaining that after shaking hands she hilariously stated, "Hi, I'm Jen. I'm five months pregnant." Jeannotte responded, "Okay, I wouldn't have known. But thank you for letting me know." He also talked about playing Sam Kirk, brother of the legendary Captain Kirk, on "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds."
Jeannotte's astonishment at nabbing the role was apparent, with the actor confessing, "It's a dream that I [...] feel like I'm gonna wake up from at some point." Jeannotte didn't even realize he was up for Sam until he got the part. "The fact that Sam Kirk has only ever been played before by William Shatner lying on the ground with a fake mustache is pretty incredible," the Hallmark star marveled, adding, "It's pretty great shoes to step into."
