Betty White's Lifetime Christmas Movie Postponed until 2021 Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Betty White's avid fans will have to extend their patience as they will not be able to watch her Lifetime Christmas film on the date they expected because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Betty White's untitled holiday film has been delayed until 2021 due to the ongoing coronavirus disease pandemic. In a recent statement to Entertainment Weekly, Lifetime said:

"We're all still dreaming of a White Christmas with Betty White — unfortunately we will have to wait until 2021."

The network's statement explained that the veteran actress's film is being pushed to next year because of filming restrictions brought about by the pandemic, which has upended the world for several months now.

The said film features the character of White helping would-be Santas get ready for the annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. The movie will lead people to wonder: "Is she secretly Mrs. Claus?"

The "Golden Girls" actress has also taken this time to explore her own backyard.

SAFE AND BUSY IN LOCKDOWN

Meanwhile, the eight-time Emmy winner has been keeping herself busy in the midst of the current global crisis. Her representative recently gave an update on how she was doing.

White has been an "absolute pro" at maintaining social distance. "No one permitted in except those who must. Has helpers who are great with her," the actress's representative said.

White's publicist regularly checks in on the all-time Hollywood legend as well. The "Golden Girls" actress has also taken this time to explore her own backyard.

White's representative said that the actress has an impressive backyard with several wild animals visiting it, adding that two ducks consistently drop by to say hello to the actress.

PASSION FOR ACTING AND ANIMALS

White is a comedic actress popular for television shows like "The Tyler Moor Show" and "Hot in Cleveland." She has been in the entertainment industry for more than eight decades.

White's successful career has allowed her to share her passion for animals. The actress has worked with the Los Angeles Zoo and the Morris Animal Foundation for over four decades.
