Scott McCreery’s 2018 hit “Five More Minutes” is getting the Hallmark TV movie treatment. The song has inspired a holiday movie that will share the same title. The movie “Five More Minutes” stars Nikki DeLoach and David Haydn-Jones and tells the story of a woman’s holiday wish being answered in surprising ways after her late grandfather’s journal is discovered. And as you might expect from a Hallmark movie, a previously unknown romance is discovered. While McCreery doesn’t appear in the movie, he is an executive producer for the project. “Five More Minutes” will air on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel on November 20th at 9pm
