Most recent
Will Kemp tends to be the steady leading man rather than the name on the poster, with just one top-billed turn across eight films since 2018. He is reliable holiday company. Four of those eight are Christmas titles, and the rest skew to winter and the big city rather than the usual snowy small town, which gives his run a slightly dressier feel. His best-reviewed outing is The Christmas Waltz from 2020 at 7.0, with Love, Romance, & Chocolate and Royal Matchmaker close behind. He plays everything straight, no winking at the camera. And while he has worked more than once with Lacey Chabert and Brittany Bristow, neither is a fixed partner, so he slots in alongside whoever the season calls for. Dependable, warm, no surprises.
