WATCH: Teaser for "A Christmas Story Christmas"

The teaser trailer for the sequel to “A Christmas Story” was released by HBO Max. 

Officially titled “A Christmas Story Christmas,” the movie features Ralphie, Peter Billingsley, returning to his iconic role now looking a lot more like “the old man” than the young little glasses-wearing kiddo who hungered for one thing, a Red Ryder air rifle. The 51-year-old actor joins past cast members as he returns to his hometown in hopes of recreating the magical Christmases from his past, this time for his own kids. 

Additional stars reprising their roles from the 1983 original include Zack Ward, playing the former town bully Scut Farkus who is now a police officer, plus R.D. Robb and Scott Schwartz as the double dog darer and the recipient of the dare who fatefully put his tongue on the frozen pole. Also returning is Ian Petrella, who played Randy Parker, the youngest member of the Parker household.

The new sequel is set to be released on Nov. 17 exclusively on HBO Max.
