Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is the third Picture Perfect Mysteries film; the PenaVegas also starred together in Hallmark's The Stepmother and Midnight's Kiss.
Willie Aames, who plays the Neil Khan character, was a child star on Eight Is Enough and Charles in Charge—his casting as a faded celebrity playwright is deliberate meta-commentary.
