A Sunburnt Christmas is now available to stream on Stan, and to celebrate the cast were out in full force at the world premiere in Sydney on Thursday.
And the stars of the movie, including director Christiaan Van Vuuren and Sullivan Stapleton all agreed that the sun-drenched Aussie movie could pave the way for more festive films to be created Down Under in future.
Christian, who is known as one half of the riotous YouTube comedy duo Bondi Hipsters, told Daily Mail Australia: I ve always wanted to see the quintessential Australian Christmas movie, and I m hoping that we ve made that exist.
The new Stan comedy was directed by Christiaan Van Vuuren (known for
Bondi Hipsters and Stan s
The Other Guy) and tells the story of a single mum and her young kids who are living on an outback farm and going through a rough moment in their lives.
Everything is then turned upside down when Daryl (Daniel Henshall from Stan s
Bloom), a runaway criminal dressed as Santa Claus, crashes into their property in search of a secret he has hidden there, but is mistaken for the real Santa by the youngest of the kids, Daisy (Lena Nankivell).
Also in the mix are Daisy s older siblings Tom (Eaden McGuinness), a very anxious child, and her wily teenage sister Hazel (Tatiana Goode), who sees Daryl s unexpected arrival as an opportunity to get her troubled family back on track.
