Nikki DeLoach (“Cranberry Christmas,”
“Awkward.”) and Scott Porter (“Friday Night Lights”) star in “Taking the Reins,” a new, original
movie premiering Saturday, September 25, (9 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel as part of
the network’s annual “Fall Harvest” programming event. Corbin Bernsen (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang)
and Janine Turner (“Northern Exposure”) also star.
When Samantha (DeLoach) is told by her magazine editor that she needs to put more of
herself into her writing, she decides to go back home to her family’s horse ranch to write an
article about the one subject she’s always been passionate about: horses. With her family hosting
the annual Equestrian Competition this year it should be easy. But once there, Sam will have to
face her past, which not only includes her reason for giving up riding, but also why her marriage
fell apart with ex-husband Luke (Porter).
“Taking the Reins” is from Sliding Into Home, LLC. Andrew Gernhard, Dustin Rikert, Barry
Hennessey and Colin Theys are producers. Clare Niederpruem directed from a script by Alex
Wright.
