Emilia Clarke And Henry Golding Are Set To Be Your New Favourite Rom-Com Couple In 'Last Christmas'

The upcoming holiday movie has been dubbed the new 'Love Actually' - by Grace Back
  • 15 Aug 2019

The first trailer for Last Christmas, a new rom-com starring Emilia Clarke (of Game of Thrones fame) and Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians) has been released. The soon to be iconic holiday movie is based on George Michael's even more iconic Christmas anthem of the same name. 

Watch the trailer below: 

Kate (Clarke) is a disgruntled Londoner who works in a Christmas shop as the least jolly elf ever. Meanwhile, Tom (Golding) is a kind and genuine homeless shelter volunteer, who charmingly tells Kate that “getting pooed on by a bird” is good luck. 

Actors Emma Thompson (Love Actually) and Michelle Yeoh (who was Golding's onscreen mum in Crazy Rich Asians) also have roles in the film. Thompson plays Kate’s concerned mother, while Yeoh plays her exasperated boss.

“This is my little helper,” Yeoh says, after throwing a Christmas ornament at the back of Clarke’s head. “I have nicknamed her Lazy the Elf because she appears never to work.”

Get your tissues ready! The film releases on November 8.
