Journey to the Christmas Star (Norwegian: Reisen til julestjernen) is a Norwegian fairy-tale adventure film from 2012 directed by Nils Gaup.[1][2] The film is based on Sverre Brandt's 1924 play Reisen til Julestjernen and is otherwise considered a remake of the 1976 film with the same name.[3] The film stars Vilde Marie Zeiner, Agnes Kittelsen, and Anders Baasmo Christiansen.

The film was a box-office success, and was seen by 443,680 people, which made it the fifth-most-viewed film in Norwegian cinemas in 2012 (after The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and ahead of The Dark Knight Rises).[4]

The film was rated four stars by Dagbladet, Verdens Gang, Dagsavisen, and FilmMagasinet, and three stars by Aftenposten.
