As the Christmas season approaches, it's the perfect time to start watching holiday movies, and there's one particular movie that is making its way back to theaters.
When it comes to Christmas movies, everyone has their own favorite. Some people love Elf, while others prefer The Holiday, and there are quite a few die-hard fans of Die Hard.
However, Christmas movies have a tendency to remain timeless favorites, with It's a Wonderful Life being a prime example of that. Surprisingly, even the films we enjoyed during our childhood are now reaching the milestone of being decades old.
In an exciting turn of events, a particular Christmas movie is set to celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2023, and as a tribute, it will make a grand return to the big screen.
“Christmas is all around us” is coming back to cinemas
If you’re not familiar with the classic jingle sung by Bill Nighy’s character, we’ll remind you: Love Actually is heading back into cinemas for its 20th Anniversary.
Originally released in 2003, this Christmas ensemble film directed by Richard Curtis initially received moderate reviews, receiving only a 64% Critics Score on Rotten Tomatoes. However, it has gained significant popularity over the years, particularly due to memorable scenes like the Joni Mitchell sequence.
The movie's synopsis states: "Nine interconnected stories delve into the complexities of love, the universal emotion that binds us all. The characters explored include David, a charming newly-elected British prime minister who finds himself falling for a young junior staffer; Sarah, a graphic designer whose love life is complicated by her dedication to her mentally ill brother; and Harry, a married man tempted by his attractive new secretary."
The cast features the likes of Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Liam Neeson, Colin Firth, Keira Knightly, Bill Nighy, Laura Linney, and more.
When and where can I watch Love Actually?
Love Actually will be heading to select cinemas for a limited time on November 24 in the UK, and December 8 in the US and other international locations.
According to Variety, Universal and Studiocanal have even prepared a 4K remaster of the film for the US run, which will include a 10-minute introductory video.
