'A Great North Christmas' Premieres on Crackle November 15th

Crackle Original Holiday Rom-Com to Stream for Free

Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment Inc. ("the Company") (Nasdaq: CSSE), one of the largest operators of streaming advertising-supported video-on-demand (AVOD) networks, announced today that the Crackle Original Film A Great North Christmas will premiere on Crackle on November 15th.

Caroline North, played by Laura Mitchell (Love at the Ranch, Harry & Meghan: A Royal Romance, Harry & Meghan: Becoming Royal), is one of LA's most powerful entertainment attorneys. She is a beautiful, smart, and aggressive type-A woman in her 30s; she is also a very lonely workaholic. Her best friends, Jackie and Samantha, decide to end Caroline's long streak of working weekends and lonely holidays by booking a surprise Christmas vacation for her in Prince George, Canada. It is a small town full of winter attractions where Caroline can ski, drive snowmobiles, ride dog sleds and, maybe, just maybe, meet someone she would enjoy spending Christmas with. Sometimes, by Christmas magic, your best friends' good wishes just might come true!

"There is nothing better than to cozy up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and a feel-good holiday movie," said Jeff Meier, head of programming for Crackle Plus. "A Great North Christmas is the perfect holiday love story to kick off Crackle's wonderful slate of holiday programming for the whole family."
