WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Two years have passed since siblings Teddy (Lewis) and Kate (Camp) helped Santa Claus (Russell) save Christmas, and Kate – once a fierce believer in Santa – is now a cynical teenager who’s unwilling to accept her mother Claire’s (Williams-Paisley) new boyfriend and his son Jack (Bruno). However, when a mysterious troublemaker named Belsnickel (Dennison) threatens to destroy the North Pole and end Christmas for good, Kate and Jack are recruited by Santa once more to help him and his wife, Mrs. Claus (Hawn), to save the day…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Kurt Russell returns as cinema’s coolest Santa, alongside his real-life wife Goldie Hawn who – naturally – plays Mrs. Claus, a powerful force of nature on her own terms.
