"Last Christmas" was released by Wham! in 1984. Clarke's new film will feature other songs from late Wham! member and iconic singer George Michael including an unreleased song.

Clarke portrays Kate in the film, a Christmas store clerk who is still coming to terms with her health issues and the near-death experience she had a year earlier. She is also a struggling singer.

Kate's life takes a turn for the better when she meets Tom, portrayed by Henry Golding of Crazy Rich Asians fame. The pair's romance has a positive impact on Kate who starts to live a happier life.

"As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart...and you gotta have faith," reads the synopsis.
