There are plenty of holiday movies to watch around Christmas, and The Family Stone is one of the ones people always watch over and over again. The reason why likely boils down to the family drama the Stones experience leading up to Christmas because we’ve all been there. Seriously, who hasn’t had family angst and awkward moments around the holidays?
The Family Stone was released in theaters on Dec. 16, 2005. The film starts with Everett Stone bringing his girlfriend, Meredith, home in hopes of proposing to her on Christmas morning with his grandmother’s ring. When things start to go awry, Meredith calls her sister for help, which only brings more complications. The Family Stone features an A-list cast that we know and love. Find out what they’ve been up to in the 15 years since The Family Stone.
