Ralphie Returns in Teaser Trailer for A CHRISTMAS STORY CHRISTMAS
Oh, Fudge! The first teaser trailer has been released for A Christmas Story Christmas, which is the sequel to the classic 1983 film A Christmas Story, one of the most beloved Christmas movies ever made. It’s pretty insane that after all these years we are actually going to get a sequel!
This sequel is set in the 1970s, and the story follows an adult Ralphie as he "returns to the house on Cleveland Street to deliver his kids a magical Christmas like the one he had growing up. With the same attention-to-real-life tone of the first, Ralphie reconnects with childhood friends, reconciles the passing of his Old Man and sows the seeds for the origins of the beloved holiday classic."
The 40-years-later follow-up also features the return of original A Christmas Story cast members including Peter Billingsly as Ralphie, Ian Petrella as Ralphie's younger brother, Randy; R.D. Robb as the triple dog-daring Schwartz; Scott Schwartz as the frozen-tongued Flick; and Zack Ward as the yellow-eyed bully Scut Farkus.
Clay Kaytis (The Christmas Chronicles) directs from a script by Nick Schenk (Gran Torino, The Mule). I’m very excited about this movie and it will be incredibly cool and interesting to catch up with these wonderful characters after all these years.
