The 1970s will be the setting for the sequel, and an adult Ralphie will bring his family to his childhood house on Cleveland Street to give his children a fantastic Christmas just like he did when he was a youngster.

Ralphie will reconnect with old friends from his youth, lay the groundwork for the timeless holiday classic, and come to terms with his grandfather's passing.
