A holiday musical event over 20 years in the making, writer-director David E. Talbert’s Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Story is a timeless yet unprecedented tale of magic, second chances, and the power of love to conquer all obstacles and it finally comes to life on Netflix!
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.
Starring Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland), Keegan-Michael Key (Dolemite Is My Name), Anika Noni Rose (Dreamgirls), Phylicia Rashad (the Creed films), Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey), Ricky Martin (American Crime Story), and newcomer Madalen Mills
Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey releases November 13th on Netflix.
