Jillian Bell and Isla Fisher star in trailer for Disney+ Christmas comedy Godmothered

November 19, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

Disney+ has debuted the first trailer for Godmothered, the upcoming Christmas comedy from director Sharon Maguire (Bridget Jones’s Diary) which stars Jillian Bell as Eleanor, a fairy godmother in training who finds a mislaid letter from 10-year-old Mackenzie and sets out to track her down only to discover the girl is now a 40-year-old single mother (Isla Fisher); check out the trailer here…

Set at Christmas time, “Godmothered” is a comedy about Eleanor, a young, inexperienced fairy godmother-in-training (Jillian Bell) who upon hearing that her chosen profession is facing extinction, decides to show the world that people still need fairy godmothers. Finding a mislaid letter from a 10-year-old girl in distress, Eleanor tracks her down and discovers that the girl, Mackenzie, is now a 40-year-old single mom (Isla Fisher) working at a news station in Boston. Having lost her husband several years earlier, Mackenzie has all but given up on the idea of “Happily Ever After,” but Eleanor is bound and determined to give Mackenzie a happiness makeover, whether she likes it or not.

Godmothered features a cast that also includes Santiago Cabrera, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Jane Curtin, June Squibb, Jillian Shea Spaeder, Willa Skye, Artemis Pebdani, Utkarsh Ambudkar and Stephnie Weir.

The film arrives on Disney+ on December 4th.
