So, we came up with this idea where I play this washed-up pop star, and I’ve got a college-age son, Teddy. I play a little guitar, and I wanted a vehicle for my son, who I think is a brilliant actor. But I had never done anything for them before GOOD WITCH. They let me do it for FOR LOVE & HONOR, which was 2016, and they did it again this time. Hallmark treats people well, and I owe them for letting me use my son – I don’t know any other network that would have said, sight unseen, “Sure, you can do a movie with your kid.” So, I think Hallmark is unique in that way. Jon Eskenas, the show runner on GOOD WITCH, and I tried to come up with an idea that was different, because it’s hard to be original when Hallmark puts out eighty-five or so movies a year. PERFECT HARMONY is the last movie in my deal. It was the first DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES reunion on camera. Last year, I got to do my first Christmas movie, A KISS BEFORE CHRISTMAS with Teri Hatcher, which was fantastic. I did one called FOR LOVE & HONOR, about a military academy six years ago. JAMES DENTON: As a part of GOOD WITCH, I had a three-movie deal with Hallmark – I think they wanted me to be in them, I didn’t have to be the lead – but it was mainly for me to produce and do something more creative on top of the show. In an exclusive phone interview, Denton discusses how he came to star in and produce PERFECT HARMONY, his early work with directors John Woo and Carl Reiner, and more. Following HOUSEWIVES, Denton costarred for seven seasons as the good doctor Sam Radford on Hallmark’s GOOD WITCH series. Prior to his eight seasons as James Delfino on DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, Denton was a series regular on THE PRETENDER. He’s had a wide-ranging career on both the large and small screens. Denton is also one of the film’s producers.ĭenton, a two-time Screen Actors Guild Award winner, along with his castmates, for Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series for DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, is originally from Knoxville, Tennessee. The telefilm, a romantic dramedy with music, stars James Denton as retired performer Jack Chandeller. PERFECT HARMONY premieres Sunday, October 16, on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
