Peacock Announces ‘Days of our Lives: A Very Salem Christmas’ Holiday Movie

[MichaelGL]

So again DAYS streaming series/film will be more interesting than the actual show airing on NBC. LOL

That fits with Zach Tinker being at the DAYS cast/crew Halloween celebration.

And Greg Rikaart being at the on-set observances of James Reynolds' 40th anniversary on Oct. 29th, and the Days 56th Anniversary on Nov. 8th.

This means the Christmas movie was filmed just a little over a month before Christmas and not the ridiculous 5 to 6 months ahead the main show does on NBC.

Love Jackee!!

Wish the promo was longer. I was going to check on peacock to see if they didn't have any promos.

(The "not exactly" reply is from the lady who makes the promos.)

[Soapsuds]

What does the not exactly mean? I'm surprised there aren't more promos or info on the movie.

I think the characters in the movie are different from the characters in regular daytime Salem.  In some cases, the actors are playing different characters than they play on the regular daytime show..  In other cases, the actors are playing the same characters as regular Salem, but in an alternate universe with different histories.

In the video, did you notice the photo of Roman on the wall behind the bar at the pub?  Marlena is working at the pub in the video.  And Sami is working at the pub in the previously-released spoiler pics.  Maybe they aren't just working at the pub for Christmas dinner. Maybe this is an alternate universe in which Roman is dead and Marlena and Sami run the pub fulltime?  Just speculating.

Is the little girl hugging Sami in the video actually Arianna Grace Horton? Or is she a different child that came out of this alternate universe scenario?  Or is Sami not Sami?

Edit to add: This ties in with what Errol wrote about Blake Berris here:

I wonder is there any more cameos from past characters that haven't been announced yet in the movie? 

[Soapsuds]

Ah ok..thanks! Makes sense now. I thought the movie was going to be about Salem characters ending up with different pairings towards the end of the movie.

I just hope it doesn't turn out to be like the one ATWT did towards its end of its run. That was a horrible Christmas episode.

From the Christmas movie...
