Operation Nutcracker is a new Hallmark Christmas movie making its network debut on Hallmark Channel after premiering on Hallmark Movies Now (which has since been relaunched as Hallmark Plus) during Christmas in July 2024. It's a heartwarming adventure story about a missing antique nutcracker and two people on a mission to find it.

Here's everything we know about Operation Nutcracker.
Operation Nutcracker release date

We don't have a premiere date for UK viewers just yet, but as soon as we have more information we'll have it for you right here.
Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery are included in many cable TV packages, but if you've cut the cord there are a few other options to help you watch. They now have a partnership with Peacock, so you can watch new movies on the streaming platform with a subscription.
You can also access Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery via Philo, Sling TV, Frndly TV, Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV and Fubo. While Hallmark Plus is the network's streaming arm, you cannot access new movies from Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery right away, so if you're looking to watch new movies as they're released, you'll need access to the channel.
