What is Johnny Depp’s A Christmas Carol movie called?

When does Ebenezer come out?

What is the story and runtime?
Paramount Global Content describes a supernatural journey through a man’s past, present and future, and his fight for a second chance. That premise follows the central setup of Dickens’s story. The catalog lists the theatrical drama/fantasy at 120 minutes; runtimes can be updated before release.
Rank #2
Paramount’s promotional line is: “This November, Johnny Depp is Ebenezer Scrooge. The name you know, the story you don’t.” It is studio marketing, not an independent assessment of the film.

“Hollywood return” is headline framing rather than an official industry label. The Associated Press reported in July 2026 that Ebenezer would be Depp’s first studio film in eight years and covered his in-character promotional appearance at San Diego Comic-Con. That supports describing the movie as a return to studio filmmaking; it does not establish a broader career verdict.
