Didn’t FX recently do something like this?
It was TERRIBLE IMO. Just miserable all around.
I wouldn’t mind a bit darker take by Eggers but still overall true to the original story of optimism and redemption.
It’s one of the all time great stories to me and I generally enjoy almost any adaptation.

Will Scrooge have a mustache?

Probably not, but the mutton chops will be glorious

This vibe I would imagine.

That was released in the US by FX but it was a BBC production. It was also relentlessly depressing and changed a shitload of the story. Bob Cratchit's wife summoned the ghosts as punishment for Scrooge making her get naked to have money to help Tiny Tim. Scrooge was also molested at his boarding school as a child and his father knew about it but allowed it to happen so long as he didn't have to pay for tuition which was the basis for why he was a dick to everyone. Just awful all the way around IMO
I remember that version. It was hot garbage! So depressing and void of the hope and redemption that is at the core of the story.
