BET Plus will stream 10 original holiday movies this Christmas season featuring Ne-Yo, Serayah, Vivica A. Fox, Romeo Miller and More.

As Christmas TV movies become more popular, more and more networks are now releasing their own. While Hallmark still reigns supreme, Lifetime has also given them some real competition. In recent years networks like Great American Family and streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu have joined in. And now, BET Plus has announced ten original holiday films for this season.

With so many channels being criticized in recent years for their lack of diversity, BET's decision to create and produce their own films is more than welcome. BET Plus Executive Vice President and General Manager Devin Griffin recently sat down for an interview with Variety. And according to him, what’s most important to the network is bringing in more authentic Black stories and experiences to the holiday movie market.

"Year after year, our members devour holiday programming; in fact, our original holiday films continue to out-perform, which is why we’re committed to growing our investment in this area of the service. But it’s not just about meeting demand, it’s also about authenticity."Devin Griffin
