I Hate Christmas Cast includes star actress Pilar Fogliati who plays Gianna. Pilar doesn’t really love Christmas because she is single.
The story in the upcoming Italian series is hilariously predictable but you must watch the entire series to dive down for humor. The series seems a hundred percent witty and full of Italian hand gestures. Well, if you are into the Mediterranean culture I Hate Christmas casts have not left the stone unturned.
The series is releasing on December 7 and the trailer is already making rounds on Social Media and Youtube channels. The trailer of the series starts with a bold statement from Pilar Fogliati, “Christmas doesn’t care about your happiness.” The basic plot of the movie is based on the life of a single character Gianna who becomes desperate to find a boyfriend before Christmas dinner. Her family member has already tagged her under a derogatory term, “spinster.”
Will she be able to come out for that perception? Other Christmas movies released this month are Xmas Hallmark, Fit For Christmas, Christmas on The Rocks, Merry Textmas, and more. Out of so many similar movies, I Hate Christmas might actually make you fall in love with Italian Christmas.
