Kristen Stewart and Schitt's Creek star/co-creator Dan Levy are teaming up for an LGBTQ+ holiday movie called Happiest Season, and the first official picture was shared from the set this week.

Stewart and Levy appear in the smiley and rainbow-filled photo, which you can see for yourself below, alongside their fellow cast members and director Clea DuVall.

"Happiest #Pride weekend from the #HappiestSeason director and cast," the post, which was shared to Twitter this week, read. "Coming to cinemas this Christmas."

The film also stars Parks and Recreation's Aubrey Plaza, Community and GLOW star Alison Brie, Mackenzie Davis, Mary Steenburgen and Victor Garber.

The plot of Happiest Season will see Stewart and Davis play a couple who head to the latter's parents' home for the festive season. Stewart's character plans to propose to her girlfriend, but there's a wrench in the works: Davis' character hasn't actually come out to her conservative parents.

Happiest Season is slated for a November 20 release in the US, and a November 27 release in the UK.

Check out the smiley snap from the set for yourself below:

Kristen Stewart spoke about her own sexuality last year, claiming that she was told that she shouldn't hold her girlfriend's hand in public if she wanted to be considered for a Marvel movie.

Meanwhile, her new co-star Mackenzie Davis recently opened up about the financial under-performance of Terminator: Dark Fate, stating that she thinks anyone who is expecting them to make a sequel "is quite insane".

"You should just pay attention to what audiences want – and they want new things and I want new things," she told NME.

"There are many interesting people that don’t fit the mould of those who make these big franchises who have not had the chance to make movies. We should be investing in them right now."
