“Party of Five” stars Lacey Chabert and Scott Wolf once played brother and sister on the hit Fox family drama, and now, they’re portraying siblings once again.Wolf, 55, and Chabert, 41, are starring in Hallmark’s newest holiday flick, “A Merry Scottish Christmas.”But the “Everwood” alum and the “Mean Girls” star claim they would never play romantic partners in future films. “We need to make it as clear as possible that never … were we going to be love interests,” Wolf chuckled to Fox News.“We knew it would be a sibling story, which really kind of set it apart a little bit from a lot of the Christmas holiday movies on Hallmark, where the central two characters are romantic love interests,” he explained of the upcoming festive flick.The “Nancy Drew” actor went on: “We knew this entire thing would be built around this sibling relationship.

And I think we were really … excited about telling a story that was a little different from what people might come to expect.”“There’s romance because Lacey’s character has a romantic love interest, and I have a story with my wife in the movie,” the actor shared. “But I think we were really excited that Hallmark embraced this story that was about … family.”“A Merry Scottish Christmas” dropped on the Hallmark channel Nov.

19, and it isn’t your typical holiday TV movie full of romance and fantasy. The movie encompasses two estranged siblings who haven’t seen each other in quite some time.

They reunite at their mother’s childhood home in Scotland for Christmas.When the Hallmark queen announced the movie earlier this year, fans flooded her social media with vomit emojis as they believed that it would be the on-screen brother-sister duo falling in love. “Hopefully no more,” Wolf joked to Fox.
