SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Roku, Inc.

"The Roku Channel is the home for standout entertainment," said Colin Davis, Roku's Head of Original Scripted Programming. "It is amazing to see such a strong affinity for the film, not only from fans of the series, but also from first time viewers. The fans deserved a moment to come together again to let their collective heart songs celebrate the holiday season and we are thrilled to bring this special movie to streamers on The Roku Channel. To have our first original film be the top viewed program on The Roku Channel, plus picking up a Critics Choice nomination all within the opening week, is the best early holiday present we could have asked for."

From minute one - Roku has been an absolutely incredible partner who has shared our vision and supported the show and movie in ways I never even imagined. Together, we set out to create something joyous, hopeful and heartfelt during a holiday season that we knew may be challenging for some. Seeing how Roku viewers around the world have responded to a story that is so deeply personal to me has been beyond gratifying. I'm so excited and grateful to celebrate the movie's success with all the fans during the most wonderful time of the year."
