About The Engagement Back-Up
When traditionalist historian Luna is entrusted with the legacy of her late father’s nautical museum, she must pretend that she’s engaged to the infamous son of a tech mogul in order to save it. But in discovering that there’s more to Jackson than meets the eye, can she broaden her romantic horizons as well as her professional ones?
Directed by Nicholas Humphries, The Engagement Back-Up leans on a strong ensemble — Elise Gatien, Preston Vanderslice, Beverley Elliott — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 2022.
