The film’s synopsis reads:
“Candy Cane Lane follows Chris (Murphy), who inadvertently makes a deal with a mischievous elf named Pepper (Bell) to better his chances of winning, she casts a magic spell that brings the 12 Days of Christmas to life, and wreaks havoc on the whole town. At the risk of ruining the holidays for his family, Chris, his wife Carol (Ross), and their three children must race against the clock to break Pepper’s spell, battle deviously magical characters, and save Christmas for everyone.”
The film reunites director Reginald Hudlin, Murphy and producer Brian Grazer for the first time since their 1992 hit Boomerang. The film is written by Kelly Younger, who was inspired by his own childhood holiday experiences on Candy Cane Lane in El Segundo, CA.
This looks like it’s going to be a ton of fun for families to watch together this holiday season! I am looking forward to all the new Christmas movies coming out this year. Family movie nights are set for the month of December! Check out the trailer below, and watch Candy Cane Lane on Amazon on December 1st.
