“There’s a sense of magic, love, and anticipation that’s happening through the whole movie,” Christina Milian tells Tudum. “You just never know who they’re going to run into or what’s going to happen next.”
Whatever Yuletide surprises lay ahead, expect Layla to do whatever it takes to make her dreams come true. Milian calls her a 'motivated woman.'
