Prepare for more festive joy with Dolly Parton as she is starring in a new Christmas film for NBC.

Called 'Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas', the film has been described as a “modern-day musical about the making of a network TV special”.

“Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas' is the frenetic backstage story and delightful on-camera results of Dolly’s desire to uplift an exhausted world’s spirits by sharing the unique ‘mountain magic’ she has always found in and around Dollywood at Christmas.

"Throughout the movie’s production numbers and rehearsal chaos, Dolly finds herself taking a private journey into her past, guided by the mysterious appearances of her personal Three Wise Men.

“When it’s time for her big special to air live, a renewed and inspired Dolly goes rogue and shows the world that the real magic of Christmas lies in the hearts of the children we all once were, the realisation that Christmas is about the people we share it with, and how her faith remains the common thread between Christmases past, present, and future.”

David Rambo, Parton and Sam Haskell will be producing the project.

This is the third time Dolly has teamed up with NBC.

She previously worked with them for 2015’s 'Dolly Parton’s Coat Of Many Colors' and the sequel 'Christmas Of Many Colors: Circle of Love' in 2016.

Dolly previously starred in 'Dolly Parton’s Christmas On The Square'.

Miley Cyrus recently revealed that she communicates with her Dolly, her Godmother, via fax.

Parton is also being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for 2022, after previously saying she didn't feel "worthy".
