## Description

**Inspired by the Classic Song That Has Been a Christmas Tradition for Generations**

The brand new adventures of Rudolph, 'the most famous reindeer of all,' come magically to life in this feature-length animated musical, full of loveable characters and voiced by an all-star cast. Ridiculed because of his nose, Rudolph runs away to the North Pole where he befriends Slyly the fox (**ERIC IDLE**) and Leonard the polar bear (**BOB NEWHART**). When his friend Zoey, a young doe, is captured by the evil Ice Queen Stormella (**WHOOPI GOLDBERG**), Rudolph bravely sets out to rescue her and helps Santa (**JOHN GOODMAN**) save Christmas. This festive mix of magic and music features eight original songs including the classic *Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer* plus **PAUL and LINDA McCARTNEY'S** *A Wonderful Christmas Time*.
