Hot Frosty: release date, cast, plot and everything we know about the Christmas rom-com

Hot Frosty will give us some fun festive viewing on Netflix. Frosty the Snowman is as much a part of Christmas as carols and mulled wine, but this holiday season sees the much-loved icon have quite the glow-up!

Hot Frosty stars festive film queen Lacey Chabert as a widow who falls for a handsome stranger bearing an uncanny resemblance to an ice sculpture she created. But can this snowman’s innocence help her to heal before it’s time for him to melt? The feel-good movie also stars Schitt’s Creek ’s Dustin Milligan.
