Netflix’s holiday lineup is about to get a touch of magic with the announcement of their upcoming animated feature, “That Christmas.” Set to be released later this year, the film boasts an impressive lineup of talent both in front of and behind the microphone.

Directed by animation veteran Simon Otto, known for his work on “Love, Death & Robots” and “How to Train Your Dragon,” “That Christmas” is adapted from the beloved children’s book series by renowned writer and director Richard Curtis.

The star-studded cast includes the likes of Brian Cox, Fiona Shaw, Jodie Whittaker, and Bill Nighy, who will lend their voices to the residents of a picturesque seaside town where the holiday season takes an unexpected turn.

Expressing his excitement for the project, director Simon Otto shared, “Becoming an animator had been on my Christmas wish list ever since I was a child, and watching animated movies was one of the biggest Christmas traditions in my family. But never could I have imagined that one day I would get the chance to direct a Christmas film written by the one-and-only Richard Curtis and collaborate with some of the most iconic voice talents.”

Richard Curtis himself expressed his delight, stating, “This has been the most amazing adventure, my first animated film. It’s been especially exciting to see the whole world I imagined come to life beyond my wildest dreams — and populated by a dream bunch of actors, their wonderful voices turned into such rich and funny characters.”

Produced by Locksmith Animation with animation production from DNEG, “That Christmas” promises to deliver heartwarming and humorous tales infused with the magic of animation. With a score by Oscar- and BAFTA-nominated composer John Powell, known for his work on “How to Train Your Dragon” and “Shrek,” the film is poised to become a cherished tradition for audiences worldwide.

Nicole P. Hearon and Adam Tandy are on board as producers, with an impressive lineup of executive producers including Mary Coleman, Natalie Fischer, Julie Lockhart, Elisabeth Murdoch, Bonnie Arnold, Lara Breay, Sarah Smith, Rebecca Cobb, Colin Hopkins, and Richard Curtis himself.

Fans of holiday animation can anticipate a festive treat as “That Christmas” prepares to spread joy and laughter this holiday season.
