Everyone's favourite cuddly-as-a-cactus green villain [1] is back and better than ever this holiday season in the newest animated adaptation of The Grinch [2]. Hitting theatres this November, the film will feature the voice of Benedict Cumberbatch as The Grinch and will bring new life to Dr. Seuss's beloved holiday classic with a twist on the storyline we all know and love: Cindy Lou Who and her friends will plot to trap Santa on Christmas Eve to thank him for helping her "overworked single mother," but little does she know, "Santa" is a bad banana with a greasy black peel this year . . .

Check out the full trailer above, which will make you completely belly laugh at the end, and mark your calendars for a family movie theatre date on Nov. 9 to get into the holiday spirit [3] early.
