Candace Cameron Bure Is Filming 3rd Home Sweet Christmas Movie in Europe

Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison have more sweet moments in store for their Home Sweet Christmas series — and they’re jetting across the pond to celebrate.

“I’ve never filmed in Europe before, so it is very exciting,” Cameron Bure, 49, exclusively told Us Weekly. “Sam and Sophie will take a European Christmas vacation to celebrate their first anniversary. They’ll stroll through the picturesque Christmas markets, castles and take in the beauty of Christmas in a way that only Europe has to offer.”

Cameron Bure and Mathison, 56, starred as childhood friends Sophie and Sam, who reunited years later when they both inherited a farm in Great American Family’s 2024 movie Home Sweet Christmas. The both reprised their roles in a sequel, Another Sweet Christmas, that aired on the network earlier this month, and is also hitting theaters for a limited engagement.

The upcoming third movie, titled A Sweet Christmas Anniversary, will pick up on Sam and Sophie’s love story and premiere in theaters in 2026.

“In this enchanting third story in the Home Sweet Christmas franchise, Sophie and Sam embark to celebrate their first anniversary in picturesque Salzburg, a sprawling Christmas postcard town adorned with decorations and lights, a place one can almost smell the scents of mulled wine and gingerbread,” a logline reads. “What begins as a romantic first-year getaway quickly transforms into a lavish royal mystery when a charismatic hotelier draws the couple into a world of festive surprises.”

The summary adds, “As Sophie uncovers a hidden connection to a beloved Christmas song, she and Sam must navigate the host’s surprising twists to safeguard their love — and to rediscover the true spirit of Christmas.”

Cameron Bure joined Great American Family in 2022, parting ways with Hallmark, to create a stable of faith-based projects.

“I love that we are bringing stories of faith,” she previously told Us in November 2024. “We have ones that aren’t about faith and more in the traditional rom-com space, but our viewers really want messages that are more meaningful. We know the reason we celebrate Christmas is because of the birth of Christ. I’ve made tons of [movies] that don’t ever mention the real meaning of Christmas.”

She added at the time, “So, just the fact that we mention God or there’s a scripture or there’s a biblical message that might be a proverb, someone might hear it and go, ‘Oh, that’s really good advice.’ They might not realize it comes from the Bible, but we love putting that in the movies.”

Cameron Bure further told Us that it was “more meaningful” to make movies for Great American Family over Hallmark.

“Hallmark has been so loved for so many years, and I loved working there. So it’s like, how can you leave?” she told Us. “And it’s just like, well, things grow and things change and there are new chapters, and I love that I’m getting to build a new network and one that truly carries a message that’s more meaningful for me personally.”

At the time, Cameron Bure also revealed that the Home Sweet Christmas story “felt fresh.”

“What I loved about [Home Sweet Christmas] is that we play childhood friends and we were best friends when we were kids that get separated, years go by and then they come back together because my great-uncle has passed and he left both of us his Maple Sugar farm, which is so Christmas,” she said last year. “It just felt fresh in that they’ve been friends forever and get reunited and then develop their friendship all over again and remember what they really loved about each other.”

Another Sweet Christmas will be in theaters Sunday, November 30, through Tuesday, December 2.
