Every 2024 Netflix Christmas movie — starring Lindsay Lohan, Chad Michael Murray, and more

Christina Milian, Lacey Chabert, and Brian Cox also headline a suite of new titles for the streamer's holiday season.

Don't even bother putting your pumpkins away, just string some garland around them and flick on the twinkly lights, because Christmas movie season is already here.

Beginning with the Christina Milian-starring Meet Me Next Christmas, Netflix is releasing a trailer a day for new holiday-themed movies to premiere through December 4. Before that, you can enjoy a delightful teaser starring Lindsay Lohan that gives sneak peaks of the whole panoply of stars across four brand new films.

Lohan seems to be settling into a kind of holiday ambassador role at Netflix, having just starred in the St. Patrick's Day rom-com Irish Wish for the streamer back in March. She joins Pretty Little Liars' Ian Harding in Our Little Secret, a classic enemies-to-lovers story about a pair of acrimonious exes who learn over the holidays that their current partners are dating. The all-star supporting cast includes Tim Meadows, Judy Reyes, Chris Parnell, and Kristin Chenoweth.

The millennial nostalgia is at an all-time high at Netflix this Christmas. Lohan's Mean Girls costar Lacey Chabert headlines Hot Frosty, a supernaturally-inflected rom-com about a grieving widow who brings a jolly snowman (Schitt's Creek's Dustin Milligan) to life. Of course, it wouldn't be properly millennial without a former WB heartthrob. One Tree Hill's Chad Michael Murray stars in a holiday-themed riff on Magic Mike called The Merry Gentlemen. Murray plays a cast member of an all-male revue cast member who meet-cutes in a curious way with Tomorrowland's Britt Robertson.

Christina Milian, who soundtracked the millennial glory days of the early 2000s, kicks the season off with Tales From the Hood director Rusty Cunfieff's Meet Me Next Christmas. Milian appears alongside Tyler Perry regular Devale Ellis in the "one crazy night"-style romance, which culminates at a Pentatonix concert.

There are two other Christmasy flicks coming to the platform that holiday hounds will want to keep tabs on. The first is Christmas-set thriller Carry-On, which stars Taron Egerton, Jason Bateman, and Sofia Carson. The second is That Christmas, the directorial debut of Simon Otto, the former DreamWorks animator responsible for character design in films like Shark Tale, Kung Fu Panda, and the How to Train Your Dragon franchise. The film boasts a Buckingham Palace-worthy voice cast of British royalty, including Brian Cox, Fiona Shaw, Bill Nighy, and Rhys Darby, and was written by Richard Curtis, who also penned Love Actually and Notting Hill.
