Mariah Carey's ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU Releasing 11-14-17
Universal City, California, September 6, in the year
of our Lord 2017 – Mariah Carey’s All I Want for
Christmas is You is debuting on Blu-rayTM, DVD, Digital and On
Demand on November 14, 2017 from Universal 1440 Entertainment, a
production entity of Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.
Narrated and executive produced by Mariah Carey, the animated
family film follows little Mariah as she chases her dream of
having a puppy of her very own, making her ultimate wish for
Christmas come true.
Joining Mariah Carey is an extraordinarily talented, dynamic and
lovable voice cast including Breanna Yde as little Mariah; Henry
Winkler as Grandpa Bill; Lacey Chabert as Mariah’s mother
Penelope; and Phil Morris as Mariah’s father Bud; along with
Laya Hayes as Mariah’s friend Vicky and Keiko Agena as the pet
adoption facilitator Emiko.
When Little Mariah (Yde) sees a darling little puppy named
“Princess” at the pet store, she suddenly knows exactly what she
wants for Christmas. Before her Christmas wish can come true,
she must prove that she can dog-sit her uncle’s dog, Jack, a
scraggly rascal; in fact, the worst dog in the county! Jack
turns Mariah and her family’s perfect holiday preparations
upside down in hilarious ways. It wasn’t exactly the Christmas
she wished for…it was more than she ever wanted. Based on the
iconic Christmas song and popular illustrated book of the same
name, Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas is You featuring
Mariah’s music and narration will be a family favorite for years
to come.
Showcasing stunning visuals in beautifully realized CGI
animation, the film showcases the all-new original song Lil
Snowman performed by Mariah Carey along with songs from Mariah
Carey’s immense discography and features the iconic song All I
Want for Christmas is You, along with two more of the pop
queen’s Christmas classics Miss You Most (At Christmas Time) and
Christmas Time Is In The Air.
Originally released in 1994, the single “All I Want for
Christmas is You” has sold more than 14 million copies. In 2016,
more than two decades later, it was the year’s most streamed
Christmas single and dominated at #1 on Billboard’s Holiday 100
for four consecutive weeks . Carey’s critically acclaimed
picture book of the same name was published in 2015.
Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas is You is executive
produced by Mariah Carey and
Stella Bulochnikov for Magic Carpet Productions in partnership
with producer Mike Young and Splash Entertainment. It is
directed by Guy Vasilovich from a script by Temple Mathews.
