Short description

The Grinch hatches a scheme to ruin Christmas when the residents of Whoville plan their annual holiday celebration.

What's left behind the scenes

In the original, the Grinch steals Christmas, not New Year's.
Initially, it was assumed that Benedict Cumberbatch would use his normal voice when voicing the Grinch. The actor managed to convince the project's creators that since all the other characters spoke with American accents, the Grinch should have the same pronunciation.
The film was initially planned for release in November 2017, but the release date was subsequently moved back a full year to avoid box office competition with another project from Sony Animation – Timothy Reckart’s “The Star” (2017).
