Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell bring the Christmas cheer in the first official trailer for Spirited

With just seven weeks to go until Christmas, the holiday season has officially begun!

And to mark the occasion, Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds have shared the official trailer for their upcoming festive flick, Spirited.

The new movie is loosely based on Charles Dickens' classic, A Christmas Carol, with Reynolds playing the Scrooge stand-in, Clint Briggs, and Ferrell the Ghost of Christmas Present.

But where the classic tale features three ghosts showing Scrooge the error of his greedy, cantankerous ways, Spirited centres around Clint convincing the Ghost of Christmas Present to take a long hard look at his past, present, and future.

And the trailer promises a jolly good time!

The highly anticipated holiday musical comedy, which comes from Daddy's Home and Instant Family director Sean Anders, also stars Octavia Spencer, Sunita Mani, Patrick Page, Joe Tippett, Marlow Barkley, and Jen Tullock.

The film will be available to stream on Apple TV+ from November 18.
