Deadline has exclusively revealed that Bridgit Mendler, Brent Morin, Ashley Tisdale, Adam Rose and Hayes MacArthur have been cast opposite Dennis Quaid in holiday themed comedy series Merry Happy Whatever.
In Merry Happy Whatever, written by Tucker Cawley and directed by Pam Fryman, Dennis Quaid plays Don Quinn, a strong-willed patriarch who must balance the demands of his complicated family with the stress of the Christmas season when his youngest daughter (Mendler) comes home for the holidays with a new boyfriend.
Mendler plays Emmy Quinn, the independent-minded daughter home for the holidays and hoping her over-protective father will accept her musician boyfriend Matt (Brent Morin), or at least not kill him.
Tisdale plays Kayla, recently separated from her husband, desperately trying to figure out what’s next, and making everyone in the Quinn household as miserable as she is.
MacArthur plays Sean, the only son of the Quinn family, a working-class family man who’s just trying to keep his head above water so he can watch the Eagles game in peace.
