It’s something we didn’t know we needed until it’s been suggested to us. Kurt Russell will be part of a new Netflix original film where he plays Santa Claus. He’ll be acting alongside child actors Juda Lewis (Netflix’s The Babysitter) and Big Little Lies’ Darby Camp. The story will center around the two siblings who somehow managed to inadvertently derail Christmas because they recorded Santa on video. It’ll be a mix of CGI and live action and it will be produced by a man who knows a thing or two about Christmas-related hijinx, Chris Columbus, who you may know from the Home Alone films. The Angry Birds Movie’s co-director Clay Kaytis will be directing the film. Shooting is expected to start in January and will hit Netflix by the time 2018 holiday season kicks off.
