"Red One:" Dwayne Johnson And Chris Evans Star In Amazon MGM Studios' New Christmas Comedy

A Holiday Adventure Packed With Action, Laughter, And Epic Stars

 


This holiday season, Amazon MGM Studios is bringing a new spin to Christmas movies with the highly anticipated release of Red One. Starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Chris Evans, and the legendary J.K. Simmons, the film offers a thrilling, action-packed adventure for all ages. The studio recently unveiled a three-minute trailer, giving audiences an extended look at this globe-trotting, comedic take on Christmas.

The Plot: Saving Santa, Saving Christmas

The story of Red One begins with the shocking abduction of none other than Santa Claus (played by J.K. Simmons). Taken from his headquarters at the North Pole, Santa’s disappearance throws the world into chaos. Enter Commander Callum Drift (Dwayne Johnson), the leader of the E.L.F. Task Force—a high-tech, elite team tasked with safeguarding the magic of Christmas. With the fate of the holiday hanging in the balance, Commander Drift must join forces with the world’s most infamous bounty hunter (played by Chris Evans), leading to a wild partnership filled with unexpected twists, intense action, and plenty of comedic moments.

As Drift and his unlikely ally embark on a mission to rescue Santa and save Christmas, the film promises to deliver a mix of heartwarming holiday spirit with the kind of action you'd expect from stars like Johnson and Evans. Red One offers an exciting new twist on the holiday genre, blending high-octane action, globe-spanning adventure, and festive cheer in a way that’s sure to appeal to audiences of all ages.

Star-Studded Cast and Talented Creators

The film’s ensemble cast is as impressive as its leading stars. Joining Johnson, Evans, and Simmons are Bonnie Hunt, Kiernan Shipka, Lucy Liu, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Nick Kroll, Kristofer Hivju, Wesley Kimmel, and Jenna Kanell. This diverse cast brings a range of talent, from comedy to drama to action, ensuring that Red One will have a little something for everyone.

The creative team behind Red One is equally noteworthy. The original story comes from Hiram Garcia, who has produced several blockbuster hits with Johnson. Directing the film is Jake Kasdan, best known for his work on Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, while Chris Morgan, the writer behind Hobbs and Shaw, penned the screenplay. The production team, which includes Johnson, Garcia, Kasdan, Dany Garcia, Melvin Mar, and Sky Salem Robinson, is aiming to create a fun, franchise-launching film that families can return to year after year.

Potential Franchise and New Universe

Red One is set in a brand-new universe that blends the wonder and magic of Christmas with epic action-adventure tropes. The movie’s creators have hinted at the potential for future installments, with Red One serving as a launchpad for what could become a full-blown franchise. By mixing traditional holiday themes with an action-packed narrative, Red One hopes to carve out a unique space in the crowded Christmas movie genre.

When and Where to Watch

Audiences won’t have to wait long to catch this exciting new holiday film. Red One is slated for a theatrical release on November 15th, giving it plenty of time to capture the holiday season’s magic. After its run in theaters, the film will make its way to Amazon Prime Video in 2025, offering viewers another chance to enjoy this festive adventure.

With a cast of Hollywood heavyweights, a seasoned production team, and a fresh take on the Christmas genre, Red One is shaping up to be one of the must-see holiday movies of the year. Whether you’re a fan of action-packed comedies, Christmas movies, or the star power of Johnson and Evans, Red One promises to deliver a holiday adventure unlike any other.
