Directed by Simon Otto, That Christmas is an upcoming animated Christmas film. It encapsulates a collection of interconnected stories focusing on loneliness and love. An adaptation of a book series by Richard Curtis, the film will mark Otto’s film debut as a director. If you are wondering when That Christmas is premiering, this is what we have learned.
Here’s all the That Christmas release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a That Christmas release date?
That Christmas’s release date is expected to arrive sometime in mid to late 2024.
In November 2019, a film adaptation of Curtis’s books went into development at Locksmith Animation under the title The Empty Stocking. Fox and Warner Bros. Pictures were attached to the project as distributors at different points in time before Netflix secured the rights in June 2022.
Locksmith revealed Simon Otto’s involvement in the project as director in June 2021. The company also announced at the time that the upcoming film has a new title, That Christmas. The film is slated to premiere sometime in 2024. However, considering that it’s already late April, we can safely speculate that the release date of That Christmas will likely be in mid to late 2024.
This date is an estimation based on the information we have at the time of this writing.
The voice cast of That Christmas includes Brian Cox as Santa, Fiona Shaw as Ms. Trapper, Jodie Whittaker as Mrs. Williams, and Bill Nighy as Bill.
