My Secret Santa, starring Alexandra Breckenridge of Virgin River, is officially the No. 1 movie worldwide on Netflix.
The festive rom-com follows Taylor (Breckenridge), a devoted mom who takes a job playing Santa at a ski resort to pay for her daughter’s ski lessons—only to spark an unexpected romance with her manager. The film also stars Ryan Eggold and Tia Mowry.
Released on December 3, the holiday favorite quickly climbed the charts, topping Netflix’s global and U.S. Top 10 lists and beating out other seasonal titles. While packed with familiar Christmas clichés, critics note that Breckenridge’s warm, engaging performance helps elevate the film—making My Secret Santa one of Netflix’s biggest holiday wins of the year.
