OlderGet To Know Newcomer Kieron Dyer From 'Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey'
Kieron Dyer is making his acting debut in the upcoming Netflix holiday film Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey!
The young actor will play Edison Latimer in the movie, which premieres TOMORROW (November 13).
Edison is Jeronicus’ (Forest Whitaker) devoted, but accident-prone apprentice.
Here’s a synopsis: Set in the gloriously vibrant town of Cobbleton, the film follows legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Whitaker) whose fanciful inventions burst with whimsy and wonder. But when his trusted apprentice (Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it’s up to his equally bright and inventive granddaughter (Madalen Mills) — and a long-forgotten invention — to heal old wounds and reawaken the magic within.
