The cast
Lindsay Lohan returns to the big screen as Avery, a bright but emotionally complex woman trying to keep her cool amid a holiday full of surprises. Ian Harding (Pretty Little Liars) plays Patrick, Avery’s ex, who navigates conflicting feelings and surreal situations.
Kristin Chenoweth shines as Harper, the witty and over-the-top sister who adds a comedic touch to every scene she’s in, while the cast also includes talented up-and-coming actors whose roles complete the dynamic of this unexpected family.
Lindsay Lohan: the queen of Christmas comedies
With Our Little Secret, Lindsay Lohan confirms her status as one of the queens of Christmas comedies on Netflix. Following the success of Falling for Christmas in 2022 and Irish Wish earlier in 2024, the actress returns with a role that blends romance, irony, and a touch of holiday magic. “It’s wonderful to be able to make films associated with the holidays because it’s a time dedicated to family. When you can create a movie that families will remember and watch together, it becomes even more special,” Lohan said in an interview with Tudum.
The reviews
Our Little Secret is built on a fun premise — two exes forced to spend Christmas together because their new partners are siblings. The film works well as a light romantic comedy with a festive atmosphere, thanks to well-timed comedic moments and a cast that includes Kristin Chenoweth in one of her most successful roles. The chemistry between the lead actors has been praised since the first trailers, raising hopes for a memorable performance. The film was partly shot in a real villa decorated for Christmas, with over 10,000 lights used on set. Kristin Chenoweth, who plays Harper, helped create some of the film’s most iconic lines, thanks to her well-known sense of humor.
