Hallmark's 'MatchMaker Mysteries: A Fatal Romance' Spoilers: Danica McKellar Discusses Angie’s Love Triangle
Ahead of the “MatchMaker Mysteries: A Fatal Romance” premiere, actress Danica McKellar opened up about her character’s romantic endeavors. McKellar, who stars as matchmaker Angie Dove, spoke with TV Insider about the second installment of the Hallmark series and the movie's big love triangle.
“When a romance writer is murdered, matchmaker Angie Dove gets entangled in another case…and with Detective Kyle Carter,” a synopsis for the film reads.
The chemistry between McKellar’s character and Victor Weber’s Kyle continues to intensify.
“There's a lot of little great fun banter between Angie and Kyle as they both try to figure out who really did this," the actress teased."They're both becoming a bit more intrigued...It'll probably be a while before anything manifests, but there's definitely some mutual respect growing and maybe a little more."
McKellar also revealed how the investigation helps unify the two characters.
"She and Kyle are getting along better because he realizes that she actually is an asset and really can help,” she aired. "Kyle has seen that Angie, even though she's a little goofy and has some extreme methods that he doesn't necessarily condone, she is helpful, so he gives her a little bit more leeway, and they actually even question a few people together.”
Angie’s ex-boyfriend and editor, Ethan (Dan Payne), is a prime suspect for the murder given that the victim is a client of the publishing company he works for.
"Since he's a suspect, Angie gets involved and is putting her nose where it shouldn't be again," McKellar explained.
Combine the crime scene with two romantic partners and there’s sure to be a bit of drama, especially when Angie’s at the center of it all.
"I have to think in any love triangle, if one of the guys has the opportunity to arrest the other guy, that's gotta be pretty darn satisfying and pretty frustrating for the woman," McKellar revealed. "There are a couple great scenes where Angie's just wondering, 'Is there more to do this? Is there a reason Kyle is so quick to arrest Ethan?' Of course, Kyle's being completely professional."
McKellar adds that her character is not at all ready to deal with the two men before her, despite her label as a romance expert.
"Whether she's talking to Ethan and he's asking her out, or she's talking to Kyle and there might be a double entendre, Angie is not prepared to handle it in any sort of mature way," she added.
“MatchMaker Mysteries: A Fatal Romance” premieres on Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries at 9 p.m. EDT on Saturday.
