What’s ‘The Mean One’ About?

Due to copyright issues from the original book series, Grinch will not be referred to as ‘The Grinch’ but instead ‘The Mean One’. The movie is shot on a mountainous terrain of Newville, involving a greenish creature that intimidates the Newville neighborhood during holidays while in a Santa costume. 

Another character, Cindy, returns to Newville twenty years later after witnessing the monster murder her parents to save the holidays and get revenge for their death.

What’s in the Trailer for ‘The Mean One’?

Plenty of YouTube Channels recently revealed the official trailer for The Mean One, running for 1 minute and 48 seconds. The trailer perfectly aligns with the movie’s description of how Cindy’s parents were murdered, alongside her plot for revenge. 

It proceeds with a glimpse of missing persons across the Newville neighborhood as Cindy wishes to investigate deeper into them. The Mean One has a lot in store for the fans this Christmas.
