Jonas Brothers to Star in Christmas Comedy Movie for Disney+ (EXCLUSIVE)

The Jonas Brothers are reuniting with Disney to produce and star in a Christmas comedy movie, slated for the 2025 holiday season.

In the film, which has the working title “Jonas Brothers Christmas Movie,” Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas “face a series of escalating obstacles as they struggle to make it from London to New York in time to spend Christmas with their families,” per the logline.

Oscar winner Jessica Yu (“Quiz Lady” and “This Is Us”) will direct the movie, which hails from 20th Television (a part of Disney Television Studios) and writer-producers Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger (“I Want You Back,” “This Is Us” and “Love, Simon”). The Jonas Brothers produce alongside Adam Fishbach, Spencer Berman and Scott Morgan. Grammy nominee Justin Tranter serves as executive music producer and will write original songs for the project.
