Christmas is coming! And with it, Christmas movies. But Oh. What. Fun is more than that. It’s a tribute to the sacrifice that women make every year to prepare dinner and set the table for the whole family. Without their work being appreciated. Without it being seen. And that has us hooked. Here’s everything we know.
Oh. What. Fun features a star-studded ensemble cast as one loving, dysfunctional—but very relatable—family, including Michelle Pfeiffer, Felicity Jones, Chloë Grace Moretz, Denis Leary, Dominic Sessa, Danielle Brooks, Devery Jacobs, Havana Rose Liu, Maude Apatow, with Jason Schwartzman, Eva Longoria and Joan Chen.
Also, the movie includes a brand new original song titled “Shake The Snow Globe” from GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Gwen Stefani. Everyone can now stream the song on Amazon Music. Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers can also check out its music video, directed by Mike Ho, released exclusively on the Amazon Music app.
In words of Gwen Stefani, “this is the first time I’ve ever been asked to write a song for a specific moment in a film. It made me nervous, excited, and inspired to take on the challenge of creating a Christmas song that feels up tempo, nostalgic and reflects the sentiment of the movie, Oh. What. Fun..”
As for the team behind the scenes, Michael Showalter will serve as director, co-writer, and producer. Chandler Baker will be in the screenplay chair, as the film is based on one of her stories. Jane Rosenthal, Berry Welsh p.g.a., Jordana Mollick p.g.a., and Kate Churchill p.g.a. will also be producers.

The Plot:
The official synopsis for Oh. What. Fun is: “Claire Clauster (Michelle Pfeiffer) is the glue that holds her chaotic, lovable family together every holiday season. From perfectly frosted cookies to meticulously wrapped gifts, no one decks the halls quite like Claire. But this year, after planning a special outing for her family, they make a crucial mistake and leave her home alone. Fed up and feeling underappreciated, she sets off on an impromptu adventure of her own. As her family scrambles to find her, Claire discovers the unexpected magic of a Christmas gone off-script.”
