Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol, a new horror take on the classic story. The film stars Johnny Depp, who looks almost unrecognizable as Ebenezer Scrooge in his return to big-budget filmmaking.
Written by Nathaniel Halpern, the movie returns to the spooky, psychological heart of Charles Dickens’ original 1843 story. Early looks at the film show Johnny Depp with extensive makeup – including prosthetics, weathered skin, and long gray hair – creating a chilling performance as he interacts with both the people of a dark Victorian London and ghostly figures.
Ti West, director of horror films like X and Pearl, brings his distinct sense of suspense to this new take on A Christmas Carol. He portrays the classic ghosts as complex and frightening creatures. The film boasts a strong cast including Sir Ian McKellen as Jacob Marley, Rupert Grint as Bob Cratchit, Andrea Riseborough, Tramell Tillman, and Robert Strange as the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. Johnny Depp joins Sam Claflin and Daisy Ridley in the movie.
The new film, Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol, will be shown in movie theaters only, starting November 13, 2026, and is being distributed by Paramount Pictures.
