WITH CHRISTMAS DRAWING closer, now is the time to start planning all the movies and series you’re going to watch this festive season. As the dark and cold nights make leaving the couch difficult – it’s the perfect opportunity to stay in, get the feet up, and start tucking into those sweets you swore you wouldn’t open till Christmas.
If you’re looking for something to watch, Disney+ has all your Christmas viewing wrapped up nicely with a huge range of series and movies to entertain everyone. Here’s a selection of our festive favourites you don’t want to miss:
Welcome to the greatest murder ever staged! It is the West End of London in the 1950s, and plans for a movie version of a smash-hit play have come to an abrupt halt after a pivotal member of the crew is murdered. When world- weary Inspector Stoppard (Sam Rockwell) and his eager rookie sidekick, Constable Stalker (Saoirse Ronan), take on the case, the two find themselves thrown into a puzzling whodunit within the glamorously sordid theatre underground.
Scott Calvin is back! After being Santa Claus for nearly thirty years, he’s as jolly as ever. But as Christmas declines in popularity, so does his Santa magic. Scott struggles to keep up with the demands of the job, as well as being there for his family. Upon discovering there is a way to retire from his post, Scott considers stepping down as Santa Claus and finding a worthy successor so that he can become a better father and husband.
It has been more than 10 years since Giselle (Amy Adams) and Robert (Patrick Dempsey) wed, but Giselle has grown disillusioned with life in the city, so they move their growing family to the sleepy suburban community of Monroeville in search of a more fairy-tale life. Unfortunately, it isn’t the quick fix she had hoped for. Suburbia has a whole new set of rules and a local queen bee, Malvina Monroe (Maya Rudolph), who makes Giselle feel more out of place than ever. Check out the trailer below for more information!
What’s better than one Christmas classic? How about two! The double feature of Home Alone and Home Alone 2 sees our plucky hero, Kevin McCallister, forgotten while his family head off on their Christmas trip. Poor Kevin is left behind to defend himself from two bumbling burglars until he can be reunited with his family.
In this holiday special, the Guardians find themselves on a mission to make Christmas unforgettable for Peter Quill and head to Earth in search of the perfect present. Written and directed by James Gunn, the special sees Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, Vin Diesel, and Bradley Cooper return to our screens.
David Beckham is coming home. Over the course of a season, David joins the Westward Boys, an East London club playing in the league where it all began for him as a boy – the Echo Premier League. Westward haven’t won a game all season, and the threat of being relegated from the league looms large. David has a mammoth task at hand – will he be able to save their squad?
Disney+ has a wide selection of series and movies to entertain everyone over the festive period for just €8.99 per month.
