Hallmark unveils significant reveal concerning 'The Chicken Sisters' project
Rewritten Article:
Get ready, Chicken Sisters fans! Hallmark Channel's small-town drama is sizzling up for a second helping. The gripping tale of Merinac's legendary chicken shops, Mimi's and Frannie's, will be gracing our screens once more with the return of Wendie Malick, Lea Thompson, Schuyler Fisk, and Genevieve Angelson. Filming is already underway!
The Chicken Sisters captivated audiences during its first season, as it unraveled the intricate threads of the third-generation feud between fiery restaurateur Gus (played by Wendie Malick), her estranged daughters Mae (Genevieve Angelson) and Amanda (Schuyler Fisk), and their archrival, Nancy (Lea Thompson). Mae, a big-city television host, clashes with her sisters, while Amanda, Nancy's daughter-in-law, finds herself caught in the middle.
Season 1 mostly stayed faithful to the storyline in K.J. Dell'Antonia's book. However, in a thrilling twist for the upcoming season, showrunner and Executive Producer Erin Gibson is tackling an expanded narrative that moves beyond the pages of the novel.
As the sassy sisters band together to open The Chicken Sisters restaurant in an attempt to put an end to their historic feud, a newcomer stirs the pot. Frank Jr., Amanda's husband, plans to open a shop on Main Street, which could potentially fan the flames of competition or reconciliation.
A highly anticipated event in Season 2 is Mae and Jay's wedding in Merinac - a celebration that promises to echo the themes of family, forgiveness, and community.
In a fascinating twist, David James Elliott will be joining the cast in a recurring role. The talented actor is set to play someone from Gus' past, adding another layer to the unfolding drama, revealing hidden secrets and unresolved issues that will shape the present.
