(WATCH): HBO Max has dropped the first footage of Peter Billingsley in his return as Ralphie in the upcoming ‘A Christmas Story Christmas,’ the sequel to the classic holiday pic ‘A Christmas Story’
The brief teaser trailer opens with a panoramic look at the Parkers’ living room, an exact replica of the way it appeared in the 1983 movie, and ends with Ralphie as an adult slipping on his signature plastic-rimmed glasses.
The film follows an adult Ralphie in the 1970s, who returns to the house on Cleveland Street to deliver his kids a magical Christmas like the one he had growing up. With the same attention to real-life tone of the first, Ralphie reconnects with childhood friends, reconciles the passing of his Old Man and sews the seeds for the origins of the beloved Holiday classic.
Along with Billingsley, Ian Petrella, Zack Ward, Scott Schwartz and R.D. Robb are also reprising their roles from the original. The cast also includes Erinn Hayes, River Drosche, Julianna Layne and Julie Hagerty. The script was written by Nick Schenk, who also executive produces, and Clay Kaytis directs. Billingsley also produces along with his partner Vince Vaughn through their Wild West Picture Show banner. Cale Boyter and Jay Ashenfelter oversee for Legendary.
