Working at department stores during the holiday shopping season should come with hazard pay. Barraged by giddy children hyped up on too many sweets, anxious parents determined to get the perfect gift, and bosses who are total Grinches, these workers too often get too many bad days for too little in return. That's the case for beleaguered handyman Nick (Connor Swindells) and harried retail-worker Sophia (Olivia Holt). So, they decide it's time for a Jingle Bell Heist.
Written by Abby McDonald and Amy Reed, this Netflix holiday original follows its thieving antiheroes as they devise a plan to rob the London department store where they've been ripped off. The goal is a big Christmas Eve score. But while planning their scheme, these two begin to want each other for Christmas. It's an inside job with plenty of holiday cheer.
Lucy Punch, Peter Serafinowicz, and Poppy Drayton co-star in this curious addition to Netflix's ever-growing holiday lineup. Are you ready to have your heart snatched by these beguiling thieves?
Jingle Bell Heist premieres on Netflix on Nov. 26.
