In the years since he made his Hallmark Channel debut in 2015, Michael Rady has become one of the channel’s most notable leading men. His talent, charm, and good looks have allowed him to join the ranks of the channel’s other standout male stars, such as Andrew Walker and Brennan Elliott. As Us Weekly noted in their roundup of Hallmark’s leading men, each guy has his own “brand.” Of Rady, they wrote, “Despite having a variety of boring professions, his characters are sweet and kind,” which very much aligns with that dad-next-door quality he has going in real life.

To date, Rady has appeared in 10 Hallmark movies, beginning with “Cloudy with a Chance of Love,” where he romances an eccentric meteorologist. While a few of his other Hallmark films have also been regular romcoms — like “Love to the Rescue,” for example — a good number of his movies have been holiday-themed. Rady has starred in a total of six Christmas or New Year’s movies for the network, including “Christmas in Pemberley Manor.” His most recent Hallmark film, “Unexpected Grace,” aired on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, which is a sister channel to the main Hallmark Channel. “Hallmark movies are wonderful and always fun to make,” Rady told MediaVillage.com. “You’re working with good people, and the fans are so effusive and wonderful. What’s interesting is that you can’t easily profile a Hallmark fan. My parents are Hallmark fans, my neighbors, and even the guy who fills up our oil tank.”
