Arnold Schwarzenegger is returning to the Christmas genre after 30 years, this time taking on the role of Santa Claus in the upcoming holiday heist film The Man With The Bag.
Schwarzenegger last starred in a Christmas genre film in 1996 with Jingle All The Way, a Christmas family comedy.
In The Man With The Bag, Schwarzenegger stars as Santa, whose iconic red bag is stolen by a rogue elf with a grudge, played by Awkwafina. With Christmas at risk, Santa turns to a thief from his “Naughty List,” played by Alan Ritchson, to help recover the stolen bag.
Ritchson’s character assembles a crew of criminally skilled misfits, with assistance from elves and reindeer, to pull off the biggest heist of their lives and save Christmas.
The film also stars Berkeley James, Michael Cyril Creighton, Liza Koshy, Kyle Mooney, Jane Krakowski and Ken Jeong.
The film is set to premiere globally on Prime Video on Dec. – Philippine Daily Inquirer/ANN
