The Modern Christmas Classic Returning To Theaters For Anniversary Celebration

Elf, originally released in 2003, is a heartwarming, hilarious tale of Buddy the Elf (Will Ferrell), a human raised in the North Pole who travels to New York City in search of his biological father (James Caan). Buddy’s Christmas cheer and North Pole upbringing frequently clash with the more reserved demeanor. Jon Favreau directed the film, which has a cast rounded out by Zooey Deschanel, Bob Newhart, Edward Asner, and Mary Steenburgen.

To watch Elf in theaters, you’ll need to check your local showtimes to see if it’s showing in your area. Otherwise, you can always revisit the film on platforms such as Prime Video, Apple TV+, Google Play, YouTube, VUDU, and various other platforms where it’s available to buy, rent, or stream. Additionally, the film will be shown on TBS and TNT this month.
