Freeform (formerly ABC Family), Disney's young adult television and streaming network, in association with Sony Pictures Television, announced that it has started production on their first original Christmas movie, Angry Angel, in Toronto. From Golden Globe-nominated director and writer Will Gluck (Easy A, Friends with Benefits), the two-hour special holiday feature stars Jason Biggs (Orange Is the New Black), Brenda Song (Pure Genius), Ricky Mabe (Preacher), Andrew Bachelor (Meet the Blacks) and Andy Favreau (Aquarius). Set in New York City, Angry Angel follows a young woman turned angel, Allison Pyke (played by Song), who is stuck on Earth and can't seem to ring the right bells in order to pass through those pearly gates into heaven. When the love of her life, Patrick (played by Mabe), shows up in New York City, it complicates Pyke's journey as well as frustrates her angel mentor Jason Biggs (played by Biggs). The not-so-merry situation also turns into an unexpected love triangle with her friend with sometimes benefits, Barker (played by Favreau).
