Netflix has revealed that a handful of their holiday films are actually in the same universe.
Amanda Phillips Atkins, EVP of production company MPCA that produced the films, has revealed that the three movies of A Christmas Prince, Holiday Calendar, The Christmas Inheritance, The Princess Switch and newest movies, The Knight Before Christmas and Holiday in the Wild, are connected.
“It felt like a natural fit to show one of our other films available on Netflix,” she shared recently. “That one seed of an idea soon turned into fun opportunity to tie the various worlds together with small easter eggs from movie to movie.”
The connection actually started with Holiday Calendar, where a glimpse of Christmas Inheritance is seen.
Then, it blossomed into making something more than just a little shot of another movie within the movie.
“We planned to branch out from just having our characters watch each other on TV,” Amanda added. “We thought it would be a great opportunity to build out a whole universe, not just for Aldovia but for the whole world of our Christmas movies.”
“It’s been so fun to watch the reactions as fans discover the tie-ins with each release,” she adds.
