Freeform to Premiere First Thanksgiving Movie; E! News Sets NY Fashion Week Lineup

Freeform announced that it has picked up a new holiday movie, Turkey Drop from Muse Entertainment, set to premiere during Freeform's "Kick Off to Christmas" programming block in November. The network's first Thanksgiving feature will star Olivia Holt, best known for her role as Tandy Bowen on Marvel's Cloak and Dagger. Olivia will play the lead role of Lucy Jacobs, a small-town girl who has started her freshman year at a big-city university. When Lucy returns home for Thanksgiving break, she suspects she's about to get turkey dropped—dumped by her high school sweetheart—during their holiday visit. To avoid a Turkey Day travesty, Lucy gets out of her comfort zone, proving she's not the same play-it-safe girl she was with her high school boyfriend. As she takes control of her own life and makes choices that put herself first, she learns to let go of what's been holding her back, helping achieve what she truly wants out of life.

E! Fashion Week

We know this to be true as E! is once again setting up headquarters at Spring Studios (in NYC) - the official home of New York Fashion Week - in order to bring viewers an exclusive and inside look at one of the year's biggest fashion events. In fact, E! News will be all over the A-list scene of Fashion Week. E! will be talking behind-the-scenes access to the hottest Fashion Week events, in-depth interviews with designers and exclusive chats with notable stars. They'll also be observing Jessie James Decker as she puts on the final touches for her Kittenish show. E! will also be all over Rihanna's Savage X Fenty Show and red carpet. Not to mention, E! News has the broadcast exclusive for the star-studded launch of the Target 20th Anniversary collection red carpet and event—and we couldn't be more excited.

E!'s Front Five powered by Visa will also take you inside the fashion world through a five-day documentary series that captures exclusive NYFW moments. E! has selected designer Kim Shui, supermodel Lily Aldridge, actress Luna Blaise, model Halima Aden and designer Jason Wu to be honored in this series since each professional is influential in their respective fields. E!'s Front Five will host the NYFW kick-off party on Wednesday, Sept. 4 at the Top of the Standard. This bash will also be co-hosted by E! Entertainment, ELLE and IMG in partnership with TRESemmé.
