Apple TV+ has released the first trailer for Spirited, the holiday musical comedy opening in theaters on November 11 and streaming on November 18 on Apple TV+. You can watch the trailer using the player below.
Spirited is rated PG-13 for language, some suggestive material, and thematic elements.
Each Christmas Eve, the Ghost of Christmas Present (Will Ferrell) selects one dark soul to be reformed by a visit from three spirits. But this season, he picked the wrong Scrooge.
Clint Briggs (Ryan Reynolds) turns the tables on his ghostly host until the Ghost of Christmas Present finds himself reexamining his own past, present, and future. For the first time, A Christmas Carol is told from the perspective of the ghosts in this hilarious musical twist on the classic Dickens tale.
Spirited also stars Octavia Spencer, Sunita Mani, Patrick Page, Joe Tippett, Marlow Barkley, and Jen Tullock. The movie was directed by Sean Anders (Daddy’s Home, Instant Family) from a script by Anders and John Morris.
The original songs are by Oscar winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (La La Land), and the production numbers were choreographed by Chloe Arnold (The Late Late Show with James Corden).
The producers include Sean Anders and John Morris through Two Grown Men, David Koplan, George Dewey through Maximum Effort Productions, and Will Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum through Gloria Sanchez. The executive producers are Diana Pokorny, Benj Pasek, and Justin Paul.
