In A Christmas Spark, Mario Lopez plays a middle-aged litigator who leaves his lucrative career to become a firefighter with other cadets half his age.

"It has been a joy to produce and star in A Christmas Spark. The movie is extra special to me because of my admiration for firefighters who worked night and day to save lives and property during the recent fires in Los Angeles. Each time I wore the firefighter uniform it was a personal tribute to the brave men and woman who worked tirelessly to save our city. Their courage, selflessness, and resilience embody true heroism, and this project is dedicated to them – true heroes," Mario Lopez said.
