A sequel to the holiday classic “A Christmas Story” is in the works for Warner Bros. and Legendary, and the film’s original child star Peter Billingsley is set to reprise his role as Ralphie in the film, two individuals with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.
The new film intended for HBO Max is titled “A Christmas Story Christmas” and will take place in the 1970s, 30 years removed from the original film set in the 1940s. It will see an adult Ralphie bringing his own kids to his home on Cleveland Street to give them the same Christmas he had growing up.
