Directed by Bradley Stryker

Written by Charley McDougall, Nick Sagar, Bradley Stryker

Julio César Cedillo stars as Mordecai

A Christmas 2026 release.

Hitman Hank Carter is trying to save his marriage with the perfect family Christmas, unfortunately for him, a hit has been put on his head, and a gang of festive bounty hunters will stop at nothing to collect the payday.

Julio César Cedillo as Mordecai…the boss who puts a hit on Hank Carter.

“Cedillo, who plays the character Mordecai, reconnected with Sagar after their time together on USA Network's ‘Queen of the South’." "I had one of the most gratifying experiences working on 'Jingle All The Slay' thanks in part to a well-written script honoring classic Christmas comedies from the past," Cedillo said. "We had the added benefit of being guided through it all by our ridiculously talented director. He is literally an actor's director."

“If you're not committing to the hysteria, the absurdity and enjoying yourself then you’re cheating the audience of a good time. You don’t pander, you just play the honesty in the scenes.”

Julio Cesar Cedillo

Finding the balance between hysteria and urgency is the work at hand with director Bradley Styker and Julio César.

Filmed on location in the UK.
