Bustling
with
Black
excellence
and
an
impressive
budget,
the
holly
jolly
affair
transformed
LA
into
a
winter
wonderland
with
warm
and
fuzzy
vibes,
family-friendly
photo
stations,
and
delicious
eats
at
the
afterparty.

from
the
event

In
Candy
Cane
Lane,
Eddie
Murphy
gets
hoodwinked,
bamboozled,
led
astray
by
a
scammy
elf
named
Pepper
(Jillian
Bell)
who
casts
a
magic
spell
that
brings
the
12
Days
of
Christmas
to
life
and
wreaks
havoc
on
the
whole
town.
“At
the
risk
of
ruining
the
holidays
for
his
family,
Chris,
his
wife
Carol
(Tracee
Ellis
Ross),
and
their
three
children
must
race
against
the
clock
to
break
Pepper’s
spell,
battle
deviously
magical
characters,
and
save
Christmas
for
everyone.”
Check
out
the
trailer
below:
“[Chris]
loves
Christmas
so
much
he’s
even
given
all
his
kids
Christmas-themed
names
(Holly,
Joy
and
Nick),”
said
director
Reginald
Hudlin
(who
teamed
up
with
Eddie
Murphy
for
the
first
time
since
Boomerang)
in
an
interview
with
PEOPLE.
When
Chris
is
unexpectedly
laid
off,
he
throws
himself
into
winning
the
Candy
Cane
Lane
house-decorating
contest
in
his
neighborhood,
which
has
a
huge
cash
prize.
But
when
he
finds
the
coolest-looking
Christmas
decorations
ever
that
will
pretty
much
guarantee
him
winning
the
big
prize,
it
turns
out
they
are
cursed
by
a
wayward
elf
named
Pepper
[Jillian
Bell].
“Now
the
’12
Days
of
Christmas’
characters
are
coming
to
life
and
causing
chaos
for
Chris
and
his
family.
Now
instead
of
winning
it
all,
he
could
lose
it
all!”
