There’s 1 More Chance to Watch ‘I’ll Be Home for Christmas’ on TV This Year

Fans of the Jonathan Taylor Thomas-led Christmas movie I’ll Be Home for Christmas have one more shot this year to catch the Disney holiday flick on Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas.

The 1998 Christmas comedy airs for the last time in 2025 on Christmas Eve, kicking off at 12 a.m. as Freeform ushers in Christmas Day.

I’ll Be Home for Christmas follows California college student Jake Wilkinson (Thomas) on an epic trek from his campus in Los Angeles to his family’s home in New York for Christmas — a deal that’s sweetened with the promise of his father’s Porsche if he can make it in time for Christmas dinner.

In addition to Thomas, the movie stars Jessica Biel as Jake’s girlfriend Allie, Adam LaVorgna as Jake’s rival Eddie, Sean O’Bryan as police officer Max, and Gary Cole as Jake’s father.
