A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish

A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish (2019) is a musical holiday romance you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Michelle Johnston, it spins the Cinderella tale once more, this time under the tree and with a guitar slung over its heroine's shoulder.

Kat Emerson (Laura Marano) dreams of performing her own songs, but at home she's treated like the help. After her father's death, a vain influencer stepmother runs the house while two stepsisters chase likes and outfits. Working as a singing elf at billionaire Terrence Wintergarden's Santa Land, Kat befriends Nick, a charming guy filling in as the mall's Santa Claus. Their easy connection grows into something more, and Kat has no idea who Nick really is or why a chance meeting on Christmas Eve might rewrite her whole year.

This is light family fare carried by Marano's original musical numbers, exactly the kind of thing you put on with cocoa and zero expectations. It's aimed at viewers who love cozy Christmas rom-coms and modern fairy-tale makeovers. Gregg Sulkin and Isabella Gomez round out the cast. Stream A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish online on iFILM.
