New Peanuts Special Gets First Look Ahead Of Apple TV Premiere

Snoopy and the Peanuts gang are coming home for the holidays.

Apple TV is bringing Snoopy back for another Christmas adventure with a brand-new holiday special that puts the beloved dog in yet another crisis. Inspired by the iconic Peanuts comic strip created by Charles M. Schulz, the franchise has continued expanding its presence on the streaming service through new animated projects while keeping its original content available to subscribers as well.

The streaming platform has officially released the trailer for Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy, a new animated Christmas special. The latest installment in the Snoopy Presents collection follows the titular character as he attempts to redeem himself after discovering that Santa Claus has placed him on the naughty list. Check out the trailer below:

With Christmas quickly approaching, Snoopy has a very limited amount of time to get on Santa’s good side again. The holiday special will stream exclusively on Apple TV and have music from several popular artists. Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy features work from multiple award-winning musicians.

Emmy-nominated composer Jeff Morrow is responsible for the score. The project will include John Legend’s original song “Get Ready,” produced by Raphael Saadiq, and Kamasi Washington’s “Trying to Get There,” featuring Leon Bridges. It will also debut Laufey’s version of the classic holiday song, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” produced by Spencer Stewart.

The story takes place during the final 12 days before Christmas, with Snoopy finding himself in trouble. Determined to change Santa’s mind, Snoopy enlists the help of the other Peanuts characters. However, his efforts to help others unfortunately still seem to land him in some sort of trouble.

The trailer’s release is just the most recent of Apple TV’s growing collection of Peanuts projects. The streaming platform has introduced several new specials starring Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and their friends. The upcoming release is lighthearted and wholesome, a theme that has become synonymous with the franchise. While Snoopy’s initial motivation was because he wanted presents, the special’s trailer shows that the storyline will focus on the importance of being kind without expecting anything in return.

Peanuts’ Christmas special, Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy, will be released on November 13, 2026, on Apple TV.
