The Santa Clauses Trailer

The Santa Clauses Trailer: Is Tim Allen Being changed by... Peyton Manning?

Disney+ on Saturday announced at the D23 Expo that The Santa Clauses — a limited series revival of the beloved Santa Clause film franchise starring Tim Allen — will premiere Wednesday, Nov. 16, with its first two episodes.

The Santa Clauses finds Scott “on the brink of his 65th birthday and realizing that he can’t be Santa forever,” according to the official logline. “He’s starting to lose a step in his Santa duties, and more importantly, he’s got a family who could benefit from a life in the normal world, especially his two kids who have grown up at the Pole. With a lot of elves, children, and family to please, Scott sets out to find a suitable replacement Santa while preparing his family for a new adventure in a life south of the pole.”

Tim Allen and Elizabeth Mitchell will reprise their roles of Scott Calvin/Santa Claus and Carol Calvin/Mrs. Claus, respectively. David Krumholtz is also set to return as Bernard the Elf, the head elf of Santa’s workshop.

Allen first starred in the 1994 film “The Santa Clause,” which was followed by two sequels: 2002’s “The Santa Clause 2” and 2006’s “The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause.”

Along with Allen, Mitchell and Krumholtz, “The Santa Clauses” cast includes Elizabeth Allen-Dick, Devin Bright, Austin Kane, Matilda Lawler, Teagan Johnson, Nico Bustos, Laura San Giacomo, Rupali Redd and Kal Penn. Jack Burditt, who created the Allen-led comedy series “Last Man Standing,” serves as showrunner and executive producer on the Disney Original series. Allen executive produces alongside Kevin Hench, Richard Baker and Rick Messina. The Disney Branded Television series is produced by 20th Television.
