It’s a Bill Murray Christmas miracle! The actor, entertainer, and Saturday Night Live alum has told Variety that he will return to television for a holiday special, during which he will sing classic Christmas carols.

As if the news could not get any better, Murray reveals that he will re-unite with Lost in Translation filmmaker Sofia Coppola for the still untitled project, which she will direct.

Murray, who is featured on the cover of this week’s Variety, volunteers a few select details about the special.

“It’s not going to be live,” Murray says. “We’re going to do it like a little movie. It won’t have a format, but it’s going to have music. It will have texture. It will have threads through it that are writing. There will be prose.” He added, “It will have a patina style and wit to it. It will be nice.”

Coppola also confirmed the project to Variety, saying, “Not sure when it will air, but my motivation is to hear him singing my song requests.”

While we await more information on this glorious television project, take a look at Murray and Coppola’s last moody, music-related collaboration.
