Maya Rudolph Will Star in “A Christmas Story” Remake

Maya Rudolph has been tapped to lead the live TV musical “A Christmas Story”, by the Fox Network.

The actress and “Saturday Night Live” vet will play the mother of 9-year-old Ralphie Parker, the boy at the center of the musical who dreams of landing an air rifle for Christmas. The show will air Dec. 17.

The Broadway production of “A Christmas Story: The Musical” opened in 2012 with a score by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, recent Tony Award winners for the musical “Dear Evan Hansen.” It was nominated for three Tony Awards, including best musical, best book and best original score.

The musical is based on the 1983 film, which was based on Jean Shepherd’s semiautobiographical story.

    I like Maya, but I don’t think they should mess with the movie. It’s a classic for a reason. They always mess up these remakes.
