If you're looking for a Christmas film to get stuck into this week, then look no further than Lindsay Lohan's new movie, Falling for Christmas. You can watch the trailer below:
The movie sees Lindsay, 32, make her return to the screen in her first major role for over a decade.
It tells the story of heiress Sierra Belmont (played by Lindsay) who develops amnesia after falling off the side of a mountain on a skiing trip.

She ends up being looked after by a local lodge owner (played by Chord Overstreet) who Sierra stays with while trying to recover from her amnesia in the days leading up to Christmas.
"A newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress gets into a skiing accident, suffers from total amnesia and finds herself in the care of a handsome, blue-collar lodge owner and his precious daughter in the days leading up to Christmas," the synopsis explains.
“It’s such a refreshing, heartwarming romantic comedy,” Lindsay said in a Tudum interview. “I miss doing those kinds of movies.”
She added that she particularly enjoyed the stunt scenes. “All the stunt scenes were really fun for me because I haven’t gotten to do that much in a lot of my films,” she said.
“[Like] flying off the hill, attempting to ski well and not doing it.”
And fans are so excited for the movie to drop, with one writing: "I'm so excited for the Lindsay Lohan movie on Netflix."
While another said: "Honestly I am so excited for the new Lindsay Lohan film on Netflix."
And a third added: "Falling for Christmas is comin to Netflix on Nov 10th let's start the holiday season off with a bang."
The film is directed by Janeen Damian and is Lindsay's first project with Netflix. But it's certainly not the last, with Lindsay already working on another rom com, Irish Wish.
It stars Lindsay as a bridesmaid who uses magic to turn herself into the bride. However, she soon hits a problem when she realises it's not all it's cracked up to be.
We're expecting big things from the movies, with them both being Lindsay's first film credits since 2019, where she starred in Among the Shadows.
If they're anything like some of our faves - Freaky Friday, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, Herbie: Fully Loaded, Scary Movie and of course Parent Trap, they'll be a big hit.
Falling for Christmas arrives on Netflix on 10 November.
