Powered by Reelgood

Light the fire and pour some cocoa because the holiday season is upon us. You know what that means: it’s time to watch nothing but Christmas movies for the rest of 2023. And considering just how many brand new holiday movies are released each year, you have plenty of titles to choose from. Between all of the original movies dropping on cable and across all of the major streaming platforms, you could watch a new double feature every single evening from now until you hear Santa’s sleigh — and you still wouldn’t see everything.

With so many new holiday movies arriving, you’re definitely going to need a guide if you want to make the most of the holiday season’s streamings. That’s where our holiday movie guide comes in handy! Below you’ll find a list of pretty much every brand new holiday movie coming out in 2023, including movies with megastars like Eddie Murphy (Candy Cane Lane on Prime Video), Melissa McCarthy (Genie on Peacock) and Demi Lovato (A Very Demi Holiday Special on the Roku Channel). Your holiday favorites are back with new movies, like Lacey Chabert (Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up on Hallmark), Tia Mowry (Yes, Chef! Christmas on Lifetime), and Candace Cameron Bure (My Christmas Hero on Great American Family). The kids will be excited to watch new holiday specials from The Snoopy Show, Frog & Toad, and Shape Island — and parents and kids alike will want to check out the return of The Santa Clauses on Disney+. There are also four new movies with the word “royal” in the title, because that’s a thing we are still doing.

There truly is something for everyone this holiday season, so start scrolling and start making a to-watch list (and don’t forget to check this list twice).
