All other Christmas movies waiting to be released in 2019 can go home now because Let It Snow<\/em> is officially our new holiday obsession. <\/p>\n

Based on the 2008 novel of the same name by The Fault In Our Stars<\/em> author John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle<\/strong>, Netflix’s latest original movie tells the tale of three adorable and interconnecting love stories in the small town of Laurel, Illinois on Christmas Eve. It’s like Love Actually<\/em> except set in the sleepy Midwest, featuring a cast of some of young Hollywood hottest up-and-comers and a dash of Joan Cusack<\/strong> as a tin foil-covered tow truck driver. (Confused? Just watch the movie and bask in the absurdity of her character, helpfully named Tin Foil Woman.)<\/p>\n

Like To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before and Set It Up<\/em> before it, we immediately became obsessed with all things Let It Snow<\/em> as soon as we finished watching it…and then watching it again. While the robust cast does have some familiar faces, namely Kiernan Shipka, you’ve likely seen many of the stars before. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And if not, we’re about to introduce you to all of the main cast members, also offering up some fun facts about them too as an early holiday present. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

So let’s make like Addie in the movie and get to social media stalkin’, shall we?<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
