‘A Very Murray Christmas’ with Bill Murray Gets a Netflix Release

Netflix will be treating audiences to A Very Murray Christmas over the winter holidays. Described as an homage to the classic variety show, A Very Murray Christmas stars Bill Murray as himself and was directed by Sofia Coppola. Coppola and Murray collaborated on Lost in Translation and co-wrote the A Very Murray Christmas script with Mitch Glazer. Netflix is aiming for a December premiere.

In A Very Murray Christmas, Murray is the host of a variety show who “worries no one will show up to his TV show due to a terrible snow storm in New York City. Through luck and perseverance, guests arrive at the Carlyle hotel to help him; dancing and singing in holiday spirit.”

In addition to Murray, the cast includes George Clooney, Paul Shaffer, Amy Poehler, Julie White, Dimitri Dimitrov, Michael Cera, Chris Rock, David Johansen, Maya Rudolph, Jason Schwartzman, Jenny Lewis, Phoenix, Frederic Moulin, Rashida Jones, and Miley Cyrus.
