Kurt Russell has been acting for over 55 years (since he was a little kid) now and he has played several different roles throughout his long career. He has been the good guy, the bad guy, Elvis Presley, Wyatt Earp and Kurt Russell to name a few and now he is going to play another legendary role for Netflix.
He is going to play a ho, ho, ho, as in Santa Claus in The Christmas Chronicles. Although he is not going to be your typical Saint Nick, he is going to be one that will make his grandkids proud. That is because he will be the coolest Santa since Billy Bob Thornton in the first Bad Santa (let’s never mention the second one).
According to Netflix, it about, “The Christmas Chronicles, a holiday adventure from producer Chris Columbus (“Home Alone”, “Harry Potter”) and director Clay Kaytis (“The Angry Birds Movie”), tells the story of sister and brother, Kate (Darby Camp) and Teddy Pierce (Judah Lewis), whose Christmas Eve plan to catch Santa Claus (Kurt Russell) on camera turns into an unexpected journey that most kids could only dream about. After staking out Santa’s arrival, they sneak into his sleigh, cause it to crash and nearly derail Christmas. As their wild night unfolds, Kate and Teddy work together with Santa – as you’ve never seen him before – and his loyal Elves to save Christmas before it’s too late.” Talking about the elves, how cute are they? I hope Netflix makes dolls of them to give all the nice kids in your life.
Spend Thanksgiving with this Christmas movie that starts streaming on November 22nd.
