he is thrust into the role of Santa. Unbeknownst to him, this transformation is irreversible, and as Scott dons the Santa suit, he begins to undergo a physical and emotional transformation, slowly becoming the jolly, bearded man in the red suit.

His new responsibilities as Santa Claus take a toll on his relationships, especially with his ex-wife, Laura (Wendy Crewson), and her new boyfriend, Neil (Judge Reinhold), who both think Scott is losing his mind. Despite their skepticism, Scott comes to accept his new role, embracing the magic of Christmas and rediscovering the joy of the season. Along the way, he also tries to reconnect with his son, Charlie (Eric Lloyd), who is the only one who believes in his father’s new idenтιтy.

🎅 Humor, Heart, and Holiday Spirit
