Disney Channel has officially announced another Disney Channel Original Movie coming soon. The movie will be called 'Christmas Again' and has now begun production.
Andy Fickman (Race to Witch Mountain) serves as director with his long-time producing partner, Betsy Sullenger. The movie comes from the team of the Disney Channel series 'Liv and Maddie'.
The cast includes:
L-R: Scarlett Estevez (DC's Bunk'd), Daniel Sunjata (Manifest, Rescue Me), Alexis Carra (Fosse/Verdon) and newcomer Ashlyn Jade Lopez.
L-R: Tony Award winner Priscilla Lopez (A Chorus Line), Tony Amendola (Annabelle), Beth Lacke (High School Musical: The Musical: The Series) and veteran comedic actor Gary Anthony Williams (Star Wars Resistance).
"Written by Doan La (Black Friday), Christmas Again centers on Rowena "Ro" (Estevez), a high-spirited 11-year-old girl having a hard time getting in the holiday spirit. She wishes that her divorced parents (Sunjata and Carra) were still together; that her dad's new girlfriend (Lacke) and son were completely out of the picture; and that her family traditions could remain the same as always. After a disappointing celebration with her family - including sister Gabriela "Gabby" (Ashlyn Lopez), Abuela Sofia (Priscilla Lopez), and Abuelo Hector (Amendola) - Ro tells a mall Santa (Williams) that what she wants most for Christmas this year is a "do-over." Her wish comes true, and Ro unexpectedly finds herself reliving Christmas day over and over... and over again." - D23.com
'Christmas Again' will be the 110th or 111th DCOM, depending on when 'Spin', announced in August, will be released on the channel. The movie is the first Christmas movie to be released in 10 years, with 'Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas!' (2011) being the last.
