In the vein of 2007's Enchanted comes Godmothered, a Disney+ comedy in which Jillian Bell’s bright-eyed fairy godmother-in-training collides with the general misery of the real world. Bridget Jones’s Diary director Sharon Maguire helms the straight-to-streaming feature, which co-stars Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers) as a single mom in desperate need of a “happiness makeover.” Low-stakes, self-aware holiday fare that doesn’t involve princes, switches, and multiple Hudgenses? We’ll take it.
You can’t really ask for more reliably charming performers than Bell and Fisher, after all, and the supporting cast counts Jane Curtin, June Squibb, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Willa Skye, and Utkarsh Ambudkar among its ranks. That’s just money in the bank.
