The cast of Elf have reunited for a virtual fundraising event.
Will Ferrell reprised his role as Buddy the Elf for the virtual table read, with Zooey Deschanel returning as Jovie, in aid of the Democratic Party of Georgia.
The actors recreated their duet of ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’, and were joined by co-stars Bob Newhart, Ed Asner, Andy Richer, Amy Sedaris, Mary Steenburgen, Matt Walsh and Kyle Glass.

As he spreads festive cheer around the world, Buddy also journeys to New York City to meet him biological father, who is on the naughty list.
"You sit on a throne of LIES!" 🤣
