Actors With Down Syndrome To Star In Lead Roles Of New Hallmark Movie

Hallmark has shared its mission to diversify its content. The network has announced details about an upcoming movie that will feature actors in the lead roles who have Down Syndrome. The movie called “Color My World With Love,” starring model and actress Lily D. Moore and actor David DeSanctis, both of whom have Down Syndrome. Details about the film were shared with ET.

Color My World With Love, which recently wrapped production, follows Kendall (Never Have I Ever’s Lily D. Moore), a talented artist with Down syndrome who creates beautiful paintings in the impressionist style that reflect the reality of her subjects as she sees them. Thanks to the support of her mother, Emma (Erica Durance), and grandmother, Bev (Karen Kruper), Kendall is happy and thriving. Her life takes a turn when she meets Brad (David DeSanctis) in a cooking class at the local center for diverse learners and romance blossoms.

The movie will reportedly premiere later this year on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
