From the makers of Harry Potter and Home Alone comes a new soon-to-be classic! When brother and sister Kate and Teddy plan to capture Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, their plan goes horribly wrong and the children have to team up with Santa to save Christmas. Speaking about the film, director Clay Kaytis said: "No one is better suited than Kurt Russell to bring our version of a rugged, charismatic, and hilarious Santa Claus to life. From our first meeting, he completely threw himself into this iconic role - and grew an impressive beard in the process. It has been a dream come true to work with Kurt in creating what I believe will be the new definition of Santa Claus for generations to come."
