The holiday movie Meeting Mr. Christmas will debut online on November 1 on Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment (check your streaming service for access).

Sophie Montgomery, a female travel blogger with a column called ‘Sophie’s Solo Travels,’ has spent the last four years avoiding Christmas and traveling alone. When she receives a call that her mother has had a fall, she comes home to help her mom by planning their annual Christmas charity event only to learn she is not planning the event alone.

Holiday-loving town doctor Fin Miller’s positive and festive charms are no match for Sophie’s cynicism when it comes to Christmas, so she decides to take Finn’s Christmas charm and turn it into a story for her escaping Christmas blog she does every year, only to realize her thoughts about Christmas and feelings for Finn have changed.

The cast includes Greta Carew-Johns, Madison Smith, Jaime Callica, Eileen Pedde and Laura Mitchell.
