*The newly released trailer for “Unexpected Christmas” sets the stage for a holiday dramedy packed with family turmoil and laughter, hitting theaters on November 7.
Directed by Michael Vaughn Hernandez, the film features a dynamic ensemble led by Milton “Lil Rel” Howery and Tabitha Brown, who also serve as executive producers. “Christmas movies are literally the gift that keeps on giving,” Brown said, capturing the film’s festive spirit.

Romantic entanglements and buried family secrets fuel the drama, with a cast that includes Terrence Terrell, Trell Woodberry, and Ricco Ross. “Christmas movies are literally the gift that keeps on giving,” Brown said, while Howery added, “This movie and this cast is so special and will be the holiday movie everyone will be talking about.”
Produced by Trell Woodberry, Phil Thornton, and Perrí Camper, “Unexpected Christmas” is distributed by 3 Diamonds Films and Eammon Films. The trailer teases a holiday tale where love and chaos collide, potentially uniting the Scotts or unraveling their bonds. With its vibrant cast and lively premise, the film aims to be a standout this season.
