‘Hot Frosty’ Netflix Christmas Movie Starring Lacey Chabert and Craig Robinson: Sets November 2024 Release

Netflix is expanding its selection of Christmas movies with the addition of Hot Frosty (also referred to as Love at Frost Sight) with production ongoing in Canada as we speak. Here’s everything we know. 

Note: We reached out to Netflix twice about this movie, but they did not respond to requests for comment. Deadline “exclusively” reported the title on May 13th with Netflix Tudum publishing alongside them. Emma Armbrüster contributed to this report.

Directed by Jerry Ciccoritti and written by Russell Hainline, the plot picks up after a magical scarf brings a handsome snowman to life. His funny and friendly spirit helps inspire a woman to live her life to the fullest. This occurs two years after Cathy has lost her husband, but time with her newfound friend won’t last forever, as he’ll melt come the end of winter.

Muse Entertainment is behind the title for Netflix who have previously worked with Netflix on A Tourist’s Guide to Love. Joel S. Rice and Michael Barbuto are producers alongside Caitlin Delaney and Hayden Baptiste.

Hot Frosty will be released on Netflix for Christmas 2024

With the release of the official trailer, we’ve learned that Hot Frosty will be released on Netflix on November 13th, 2024.

Four Christmas movies are now lined up for release later this year. We’ve got Meet Me Next Christmas starring Christina Milian, Devale Ellis, and Kofi Siriboe, the second major Christmas Linsday Lohan movie in the form of Our Little Secret and the animated film That Christmas.

When is production taking place on Love at Frost Sight?

Production for Love At Frost Sight began in Brockville, Ontario, on April 24th and ran until May 18th, 2024.

The town of Brockville has been transformed into the picturesque American town of Hope Springs. The Court House square and the building beside it are covered in twinkling Christmas lights, snow, and ice
sculptures since they were used to film a few scenes of the Hope Springs Annual Snow Sculpture Competition.

Filming for the movie has also been spotted to be taking place in the Keystorm Pub and in Pakenham, Ontario, Canada.

We’ve also got numerous photos from the set as the production filmed in public in the town square, turning it into a wintery landscape with a number of the cast members showing up. Photos are courtesy of Brockville Tourism.
