It’s no secret that the holidays are a time for family, friends, and all things Christmassy. For many, this also means watching classic Christmas movies like A Christmas Story and It’s a Wonderful Life. If you’re a fan of these films, you likely know the cast. Here, we’ve interviewed some of the actors from the recent film adaptation of A Christmas Story, so be sure to read on to learn more about their experience working on the project!
The Cast of A Christmas Story Discuss What It Was Like To Filming All Over Again
When the cast of A Christmas Story reunited to film a new sequel this year, they all found themselves reflecting on the original film that made them famous.
“We were all so young and green when we did it,” recalled Donnie Wahlberg. “Now, we’re all dads and husbands, so it was really cool to get back together and do what we love. It was just like old times.”
The actors also relished revisiting some of their favorite scenes from the original movie. Ralphie (Wahlberg) had a particularly sweet moment with his dad (Martin Short) when he accidentally let slip that he wanted an Air Raid Siren for Christmas. “It was such a touching moment, and Ralphie is such a great character because he never gives up, even though his dad clearly loves him a lot,” said Short.
Despite being filmed in various locations around the U.S., including Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City, the reunion felt like home for everyone involved. “A Christmas Story is a classic not just because of its humor but also because of its heartwarming message about family, friendship and community – things that are still very true today,” said Wahlberg.

Who Gets To Play Santa In The Remake?
The cast of the remake of A Christmas Story tell us what to expect from the movie.
When we think of Santa, most of us probably think of a jolly old man with a big belly and a long white beard. But who gets to play Santa in the remake of A Christmas Story? And why did they choose these particular actors to portray him?
“We really wanted an actor who could convey both the joy and the sadness that comes with being Santa,” said producer Bob Burns. “And so we went out looking for someone who was both funny and heartwarming.”
Thatsomeone turned out to be Peter Billingsley, who you may know from such TV shows as Beverly Hills 90210 and ER. “I’m excited about it,” he says. “It’s going to be a lot of fun.”
Burns also praised Chris Plummer, who plays Mr. McFeely. “He’s perfect for the role,” he said. “He has a great sense of humor and is also very believable as an authority figure.”
So are we in for a cheesy holiday movie or something darker? Burns doesn’t see it that way at all. “A Christmas Story is always going to be hilarious, no matter what,” he says. “But I do think there will be some deeper themes explored this time around.”
