The Jonas Brothers promise they’ll be home for Christmas in the first look at the sibling trio’s upcoming family-friendly holiday movie. But based on the brief trailer that dropped on Friday (Sept. 5), Joe, Nick and Kevin Jonas will have to overcome some seriously silly obstacles if they’re going to be letting it bro, bro, bro this December.
According to a synopsis of A Very Jonas Christmas Movie — which is slated to premiere globally on Disney+ on Nov. 14 — the trio will “face a series of escalating obstacles as they struggle to make it from London to New York in time to spend Christmas with their families.”
In the trailer, the brothers take a bow in snowy London after a standing-room-only gig, with Kevin lamenting that he hasn’t seen his kids “in like a month.” Meanwhile, Nick FaceTimes with wife Priyanka Chopra and promises he’ll be home for the holidays as she shares a “we love you” from the fam back home. But when Randall Park (Shortcomings) asks them if they’re sure they can make it to the airport without him the next day, Nick assures their minder that it’s just one night. “We’ll be fine,” he says. Famous last words.
Cue the mayhem, as the boys dash through the snow in a stranger’s car, run around London and freak out as a pack of wolves surround them in the woods. “I’m sorry we never got to hear you sing Kevin!” Joe shouts as the snarling lobos close in. “I’m sure your voice is pretty okay!”
The film’s all-star cast also includes: Billie Lourd (The Last Showgirl), Laverne Cox (Doubt), KJ Apa (I Still Believe), Chloe Bennett (Valley Girl), Andrew Barth Feldman (Maybe Happy Ending), Andrea Martin (Only Murders in the Building), Kenny G and producer/songwriter Justin Tranter as themselves, as well as Park and Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Cocaine Bear).
The JoBros — who are also listed as producers — star as themselves in the film directed by Emmy- and Oscar-winner Jessica Yu (Quiz Lady), with some promised cameos from the extended Jonas family universe.
The brothers are still on the road for their 20th anniversary Jonas20: Greetings From Your Hometown tour, which is slated to hit the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif. on Saturday night (Sept. 6).
