Fans Congratulate Tabitha Brown on ‘Unexpected’ Career Update originally appeared on Parade.
Tabitha Brown’s presence precedes her. Even without meeting her, you can feel her genuine warmth through the screen. She’s funny and witty, exceptionally down to earth, and oh so real. And her unique ability to speak directly to the heart and soul of people from all walks of life makes her incredibly approachable and all the more endearing. It seems as though she was born to be every bit of who she is—inspiring, monumental, full-force Tabitha.
Whether she’s sharing her delicious, easy vegan recipes, offering some much-needed life advice in the way that only she can, or just making us laugh with her incredible sense of humor, it’s safe to say Mrs. Brown has very much earned the auntie moniker. She feels like a close friend or relative that you can call on when you need someone to cheer you up, and she’s always going to give it to you straight. There’s something about her aura that just draws you in, and if it doesn’t, well, that’s your business.
Speaking of business, Tab knows a thing or two about being a multi-hyphenate entrepreneur and has been churning out noteworthy products and projects faster than we can keep up with. When she isn’t whipping up magic in the kitchen using her cookbook Cooking From the Spirit, showing us how to use the blends from her exclusive line with McCormick, turning out a vibrant array of products exclusively for Target, helping us keep our natural hair in check with Donna’s Recipe, or penning another New York Times best-selling book, Tabitha is most likely flexing her acting chops.
You’ve seen her in roles on The Chi and in a few cameos here and there, but Tabitha the actress is about to have her moment on the big screen. That’s right, everyone’s favorite internet auntie is adding executive producer and headlining actress to her resume alongside comedic heavyweight Lil Rel Howery. This holiday season, Tabitha Brown, along with an incredibly talented ensemble cast, is headed to the big screen to have an Unexpected Christmas.
What is Unexpected Christmas About?
The film, written by Cassandra Mann and directed by Michael Vaughn Hernandez, follows the Scott family as they gather for the holidays, a reunion that quickly (and hilariously) devolves into chaos. Without giving too much of the plot away, the official synopsis says to expect “a few romantic mix-ups, old rivalries” and “plenty of family secrets.” “With love, laughter, and a little bit of chaos around every corner, this Christmas might just bring the Scotts closer together — or blow the roof off the house!”
In addition to being executive producers, Tabitha Brown and Lil Rel will also star in the movie alongside Anna Maria Horsford, DomiNque Perry, Reagan Gomez-Preston, Terrence Terrell, Trell Woodberry, Howie Bell, Cece Friday, Ricco Ross, and Koryn Hawthorne. The film is slated to be released on November 7, 2025.
What Are Fans Saying
Word of the feature film’s release prompted congratulations for the social media personality, with several fans saying, “So happy for you!!!” Overwhelmingly, fans said they “Can’t wait 🙌🏽” and personally speaking, I can’t either. I’ll make sure to be front and center on release day for this one. While we don’t have a trailer for the film yet, we can only assume that one is coming soon. Either way, like we’ve always been, we’ll be tuned into whatever Auntie Tab has to say next.
