Tyler Hilton is back on the small screen in CBS’s latest holiday movie, When Christmas Was Young.
The 39-year-old actor and musician stars alongside Karen David in the movie, which premieres at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.
Here’s the summary: A headstrong music manager (Hilton) in desperate need of a hit song for his last remaining client finds himself falling for a gifted singer-songwriter (David) with abandoned dreams of making it big, as he attempts to secure the rights to a Christmas song she wrote years ago.
Speaking with ET Canada, Tyler opened up about connecting with his character, Luke.
“Luke’s realizing he’s hit the ceiling of his idea of success, so he’s having to shift gears into something that’s sustainable and makes him happy,” he shared in a recent interview. “I think we all hit that point. It’s more rare that what you want to do at 18 is what you want to do until you retire because at some point you reconcile the idea you had with the reality.”
Tyler continued, “If you ask Luke at the beginning, he has it all figured out, like I once thought I did. He’s worked with big acts and it becomes about the money and career, then he realizes it’s about quality over quantity, and that one song which matters is worth 10 that don’t. He’s like the Jerry Maguire of the music industry and I’m definitely at that stage, where I’m reevaluating.”
The 36-year-old One Tree Hill actor and his wife Megan Park, 33, have welcomed their first child, a daughter named Winnie.

Welp, @meganparkitthere and I have kept it to ourselves long enough. Everyone… meet the newest member of our crew, our daughter, Winnie Hilton. 🥰🥰🥰”
“It feels like we’ve known her our whole lives already and being her Dad the most natural thing I’ve ever done,” he continued. “To say I’m obsessed doesn’t quite do it justice. Meg was incredible, both she and Winnie are doing great, and just like that…we’re a family!! So heads up, go ahead and click Unfollow if you’re NOT interested in seeing me go full Dad on here for awhile… cause that’s what’s going down haha. Until the next record… which even then might be a kids record!! IM OBSESSED!”
“Meet Winnie,” Megan Parkadded. “She was hidden under many jackets and piles of books on several different sets last year but now that she’s here, healthy and happy, I couldn’t wait to introduce her. @tylerhilton and I thought we understood joy, love, purpose and life before but… turns out we weren’t even close until we met Miss.
