Starring Kat Graham, the film centers on a young photographer whose life isn’t going quite how she planned. When her grandfather (Ron Cephas Jones) gifts her the advent calendar that belonged to her grandmother, though, things start to take an interesting turn. As the trailer shows, there seems to be something special about the calendar, namely, that it seems to have some predictive powers.
In addition to Graham, the rom-com stars Quincy Brown and Ethan Peck. Based on what we’ve seen, there appears to be a love triangle situation, complete with a horse-drawn carriage ride in the snow and a lot of longing looks mixed in. Watch below.
“The Holiday Calendar” starts streaming Nov. 2 on Netflix, giving you plenty of time to get into the Christmas spirit.
Did you ask Santa for some royal rom-coms? Hope so, ’cause that’s what he’s streaming your way.
Netflix is joining the Christmas movie trend Hallmark and Lifetime have been dominating. Entertainment Weekly just shared three new photos promoting three holiday movies coming soon to Netflix:
• “The Holiday Calendar” with Kat Graham – November 2
• “A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding,” sequel to “A Christmas Prince” – November 30
Here’s more on each film, along with their first look photos.

Vanessa Hudgens previewed this movie with the Instagram photo at top, shared after filming wrapped in June. The rom-com is a modern take on “The Prince and the Pauper,” following a duchess and a commoner who swap places after discovering they look exactly alike. Vanessa Hudgens plays Margaret, the Duchess of Montenaro, who magically swaps places with a commoner named Stacy a week before Christmas. Thanks to Santa’s helper, Margaret falls for Stacy’s co-worker (Sam Palladio), and Stacy finds love with Margaret’s fiancé, who is a prince.

Apparently a lot of people watched “A Christmas Prince,” so hopefully they all return for “The Royal Wedding,” which picks up a year after Amber (Rose McIver) helped Prince Richard (Ben Lamb) take the crown. Now they are preparing for a Christmas wedding — “but everything is thrown into the air when Amber questions whether she’s ready to play queen, and Richard must deal with a ‘political crisis that threatens to tarnish not only the holiday season, but the future of the kingdom.’”

“The Vampire Diaries alum Kat Graham plays a photographer who inherits an antique holiday advent calendar that appears to forecast the future. “This Is Us” favorite Ron Cephas Jones co-stars, along with Quincy Brown and Ethan Peck.
That’s just what Netflix has coming in the next month. TV networks will be listing their own holiday schedules pretty soon, with marathons of your favorite Christmas movies/shows, along with more new originals.
