Spirited Trailer: Start Your Holidays on a High Note

Apple TV+ has released the official Spirited trailer for its musical modern reimagining of Charles Dickens’ classic story A Christmas Carol. The film is expected to arrive in theaters on November 11, followed by its streaming debut on November 18.

The video features Ryan Reynolds’ Clint as he gets chosen to get a Christmas Carol treatment in an attempt to redeem his soul. However, the only problem is he’s even more difficult to deal with than your average Scrooge, leaving him irredeemable to other Christmas ghosts. The only one who’s willing to take on the challenge of changing Clint into a more positive force is Will Ferrell’s Ghost of Christmas Present.

A reimagining of the Charles Dickens classic, the Spirited movie will feature Ryan Reynolds in the leading role alongside Will Ferrell as the Ghost of Christmas Present. Joining them are Sunita Mani as Past, Patrick Page, Aimee Carrero, Joe Tippett, Marlow Barkley, and Jen Tullock.

A Christmas Carol is the famous tale of miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, who is visited by ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. There have been many feature adaptations of the story, including Bill Murray’s Scrooged, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Jim Carrey’s 2009 animated take from Robert Zemeckis, and the 1984 film starring Oscar winner George C. Scott.

Spirited is written and directed by Sean Anders and John Morris, who are reuniting with Ferrell after working together on Daddy’s Home. It is produced by Anders, Morris, Ferrell, Reynolds, Jessica Elbaum, and George Dewey, with Gloria Sanchez Productions, Maximum Effort, and Two Grown Men producing.

Ferrell and Reynolds both previously appeared in the Richard Nixon/White House comedy Dick in 1999, but shared no scenes. Until now, the two hadn’t properly collaborated before.
