A Single Mom, a Secret Identity, and a Holiday Romance Waiting to Happen — My Secret Santa Is the Christmas Movie Everyone Will Be Talking About This Season
If you thought you’d seen every holiday rom-com twist imaginable, think again.
This year’s most charming Christmas film has arrived — and it comes wrapped in comedy, heart, and one brilliantly chaotic disguise.
Alexandra Breckenridge, Ryan Eggold, and Tia Mowry headline the newest seasonal must-watch, My Secret Santa, premiering December 3 — a story about courage, reinvention, and the wild places life leads us when we’re trying to give our kids the magic they deserve.
THE SETUP: ONE JOB, ONE LIE, AND ZERO ROOM FOR MISTAKES
Alex (Alexandra Breckenridge) is a single mom doing everything she can to make Christmas special for her young son. When a luxury ski resort opens auditions for their prestigious (and extremely well-paid) seasonal Santa role, she sees her chance…
But there’s one problem:
The job is “Men Only.”
Bills are overdue. Her son’s wish list is growing. And the clock is ticking.
So Alex does the one thing no one expects:
She disguises herself as a man, beard and all, and nails the audition with a Santa performance that’s warm, hilarious, and a little too convincing.
She gets the job.
She gets the paycheck.
She gets the chance to save Christmas.
And then… she meets him.
THE COMPLICATION: THE HOTEL MANAGER WHO MAKES HER BREAK CHARACTER — LITERALLY
Ryan Eggold plays Evan, the handsome, charming, holiday-obsessed resort manager whose kindness catches Alex completely off guard.
He confides in “Santa.”
He trusts “Santa.”
He laughs with “Santa.”
And without meaning to, she starts falling — fast.
All while pretending to be someone she isn’t.
The chemistry is undeniable.
The guilt is unbearable.
And the secret?
It’s becoming impossible to manage.
Especially when Evan begins to suspect that his new Santa…
doesn’t quite walk, talk, or smile like any Santa he’s met before.
THE BEST FRIEND, THE COVER-UP, AND THE CHAOS
Tia Mowry delivers pure holiday magic as Maya, Alex’s best friend and the only person who knows the truth.
She’s the voice of reason.
The improviser of excuses.
And the queen of last-minute holiday miracles.
But even she can’t stop the resort’s staff — and a few too-curious guests — from noticing Santa’s unusual grace, suspiciously good skincare, and surprisingly perfect eyeliner.
The cover-up is cracking.
The romance is heating up.
The truth is coming.
And Christmas morning is arriving way too fast.
THE QUESTION THAT WILL KEEP VIEWERS HOOKED
As Alex’s feelings deepen and Evan unknowingly opens up his heart, viewers are left wondering:
Will her secret destroy the one chance she has at love…
or lead to the most magical Christmas of her life?
