‘Tis the season for some family drama. 3 Diamonds Films is set to release Unexpected Christmas, in theaters nationwide on November 7.
The comedy/dramedy film stars actor, comedian, writer and producer, Lil Rel Howery and Emmy-winning actress, author, entrepreneur, and social media personality Tabitha Brown. Howery and Brown both serve as executive producers.
Rounding out the stellar ensemble cast for this touching new holiday film are actors Anna Maria Horsford, Reagan Gomez-Preston, DomiNque Perry, Terrence Terrell, Trell Woodberry, Ricco Ross, Koryn Hawthorne, Cece Friday, and Howie Bell.
“This movie and this cast is so special and will be the holiday movie everyone will be talking about,” said Lil Rel Howery.
When the Scott family gathers for Christmas, the dream reunion Momma Scott (Anna Maria Horsford) planned quickly turns upside down. Her daughter Marissa (DomiNque Perry) returns home fresh off a breakup with her boyfriend Richard (Lil Rel Howery) and is then shocked when Richard arrives arm in arm with her estranged stepsister Kerry (Reagan Gomez-Preston).
Marissa tries to play it cool and invites a surprise guest of her own who has everyone talking, all while Kerry is cooking up a scheme that could ruin the whole celebration. Add in a few romantic mix-ups, old rivalries, and plenty of family secrets, and everyone is in for an unforgettable holiday. With love, laughter, and a little bit of chaos around every corner, this Christmas might just bring the Scotts closer together—or blow the roof off the house!
“Christmas movies are literally the gift that keeps on giving,” said Tabitha Brown. “Unexpected Christmas is relatable, and hilarious, but will truly be a gift for all families this holiday season!”
“We’re proud to bring Unexpected Christmas to audiences this November—a true labor of love from our amazing cast and crew,” said Phil Thornton and Trell Woodberry, Co-Founders, 3 Diamonds Films. “As a Black-owned company, we’re honored to share a story that celebrates our voices, artistry, and impact on the global stage.”
Written by Cassandra Mann and directed by Michael Vaughn Hernandez, Unexpected Christmas was produced by Trell Woodberry, Phil Thornton, and Perri Camper. Executive producers are Milton “Lil Rel” Howery, Tabitha Brown, and Norman Gyamfi. 3 Diamonds Films and Eammon Films are the distributors.
