The second of three OWN holiday films premiering this month, Carole’s Christmas, will air Friday, November 22.  Starring acclaimed actresses Kimberly Elise and Jackée Harry, the film tells the story of Carole Jordan (Elise), an overworked businesswoman who learns the meaning of “be careful what you wish for” after she off-handedly wishes she had taken another path in life. When her wish is granted, Carole’s world is turned upside down and the only person she can confide in is Iris ( Harry), a woman she recognizes from her “past life.” Carole no longer has time for the things that mattered most to her—family, friends and her annual Christmas party—but she quickly learns how grateful she was for the previous life she was living. Watch an exclusive clip below: 

The film also stars Cayden K. Williams (star of OWN’s David Makes Man), Bianca Buck and Anthony Montgomery. 

Carole’s Christmas premieres on OWN Friday, November 22 at 9pm ET/PT.
