A new festive movie has just dropped on Netflix and people are calling it their "new favourite Christmas film".

Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey is the magical tale of iconic toymaker, Jeronicus Jangle (played by Forest Whitaker) who lives in the town of Cobbleton.

The movie - which is a musical - follows Jeronicus who, with the help of his talented granddaughter Journey (newcomer Madalen Mills) sets out on a quest to track down his apprentice Gustafson (Keegan-Michael Key) who has stolen one of his magical inventions. You can watch the trailer below...

Netflix explain: "Set in the gloriously vibrant town of Cobbleton, the film follows legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker) whose fanciful inventions burst with whimsy and wonder.

"But when his trusted apprentice (Emmy winner Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it's up to his equally bright and inventive granddaughter (newcomer Madalen Mills) - and a long-forgotten invention - to heal old wounds and reawaken the magic within."

Of course, it is a Christmas film, which means there'll be plenty of music, mystical adventures and cheer along the way!
