SIMONE ASHLEY DISCUSSES HER NEW FAMILY ANIMTED MUSICAL FILM, THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS IN WONDERLAND and BRIDGERTON
/
Get ready for a topsy-turvy Christmas as St Nick heads down the rabbit hole!
All the festive fun and magic of two beloved classics come together in this hilarious and heart-warming animated musical, from director Peter Baynton (The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse) and producers Lupus Films (The Tiger Who Came to Tea, Kensuke's Kingdom).
St. Nick receives a delayed letter on Christmas Eve from the Princess of Hearts. He and his dedicated team of reindeer set off to Wonderland where they're greeted by the mean and miserable Queen of Hearts who hates all things Christmas... especially presents! Can St. Nick, aided by Alice, the Mad Hatter and March Hare, show the Queen the true meaning of Christmas and save the day before it's too late?
The film is based on Carys Bexington’s bestselling book which mashed up two classic stories: Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” and Clement Clarke Moore’s poem “Twas the Night Before Christmas” (also known as “A Visit From St Nicholas”). Bexington’s book is illustrated by Kate Hindley and published by Macmillan.
The voice cast is impressive, which includes Gerard Butler as the the lovable St Nick, Emilia Clarke as the Queen of Heart’s and Bridgerton breakout star, Simone Ashley as Alice. The music is infectious and this animated treat is truly destened to delight people of all ages.
The Night Before Christmas in Wonderland will be available to stream on STACKTV and Teletoon+, it will also air on YTV, Saturday, December 14th at 8 PM ET
