The project was directed and co-written by Sofia Coppola and, we now know, stars celebs like George Clooney, Miley Cyrus, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rashida Jones, Chris Rock and more. “It just started from wanting to see Bill sing and our fondness for those old Christmas specials that were on TV in the ’70s and ’80s,” Coppola [told ](http://www.people.com/article/bill-murray-very-murray-christmas-trailer-photo)_People._ As you’ll see in the trailer, it looks like this will be a very musical special, but Murray promises that there will be some plot too. “We’re going to do it like a little movie. It won’t have a format, but it’s going to have music,” he[ told](http://variety.com/2014/tv/news/bill-murray-to-sing-christmas-carols-in-upcoming-tv-special-exclusive-1201329020/) _Variety_. “It will have texture.
