First look at Netflix Christmas movie Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey

September 30, 2020 by EJ Moreno

Netflix entered the world of Christmas films a few years ago, and this year, they promise one of their most epic holiday adventures left. Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey features a strong cast that includes actors like Forest Whitaker, Keegan-Michael Key, and the legendary Phylicia Rashad.

Check out the first images for this musical holiday event here…

A musical adventure and a visual spectacle for the ages, Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey is a wholly fresh and spirited family holiday event. Set in the gloriously vibrant town of Cobbleton, the film follows legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker), whose fanciful inventions burst with whimsy and wonder. But when his trusted apprentice (Emmy winner Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it’s up to his equally bright and inventive granddaughter (newcomer Madalen Mills) — and a long-forgotten invention — to heal old wounds and reawaken the magic within.

From the imagination of writer-director David E. Talbert and featuring original songs by John Legend, Philip Lawrence, Davy Nathan, and “This Day” performed by Usher and Kiana Ledé, Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey reminds us of the strength of family and the power of possibility.
