Overview
- Paramount released the first poster and social teasers for Ebenezer and Johnny Depp scrubbed his Instagram to promote the film.
- On July 23, Depp made surprise in-character appearances in San Diego’s Gaslamp district and then presented the first trailer in Hall H, where footage emphasized a gothic, horror-tinged tone.
- The trailer shows Depp fully transformed as Ebenezer Scrooge and highlights unsettling supernatural imagery while leaning into the actor’s history of eccentric roles.
- The film credits Ti West as director, Nathaniel Halpern as screenwriter, Emma Watts as a producer, and lists a supporting cast that includes Ian McKellen, Andrea Riseborough, Rupert Grint, Daisy Ridley, Sam Claflin, and Tramell Tillman.
- Paramount has scheduled Ebenezer for a wide theatrical release on November 13, 2026, and the studio’s early, high-profile Comic‑Con push signals a focused marketing effort and places Depp front and center in a major‑studio comeback.
