Here's what's new on Netflix, Prime Video, Peacock and Tubi:
What we're watching: A new holiday rom-com featuring a famous a capella group, a story about a girl who befriends her older self, and a preview of the upcoming boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.
"Meet Me Next Christmas" available now on Netflix
The intrigue: Christina Milian stars in this holiday rom-com about a woman chasing tickets to a Pentatonix concert to reunite with the love of her life.
What they're saying: "I remember [the producers] saying they didn't want ['Meet Me Next Christmas'] to be a Black film. They wanted it to be a Christmas rom-com that just so happened to have Black people in it," co-star Devale Ellis tells Axios.
- "It's good to have something to watch that just makes you smile and laugh and love the people in it and not separate people by what they look like or who they are."
"My Old Ass" available now on Prime Video
The vibe: Maisy Stella ("Nashville") and Aubrey Plaza star in this coming-of-age film about an 18-year-old girl who meets her 39-year-old self during a mushroom trip.
Behind the scenes: The film premiered at Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and is nominated for a Gotham Independent Film Award for Stella's performance.
