It was later announced that Benedict Cumberbatch would be voicing the Who-hating holiday grouch, which was perfect casting if you ask us! 

And now we have our very first teaser trailer for the film, which shows the Grinch dreaming big about one day skating in the Olympics while Christina Aguilera’s “Beautiful” plays in the background. Check it out below!

It starts out with Grinch and Max hanging out at home (with the range of Mt. Crumpit out the window).

He performs a lovely routine putting all of his heart on the ice!

Then it’s back to reality where he most likely will soon be plotting ways to ruin Christmas.
