Netflix didn’t wait very long into November to tease its splashy 2018 Christmas movie. On Thursday, the streaming service debuted the trailer for “The Christmas Chronicles,” which stars Kurt Russell as Santa Claus.
The holiday adventure movie hails from producer Chris Columbus (“Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”), who knows a thing or two about Christmas classics. Yes, he’s the “Home Alone” Chris Columbus.
“The Christmas Chronicles” tells the story of sister and brother, Kate (Darby Camp) and Teddy Pierce (Judah Lewis), whose Christmas Eve plan to catch Santa Claus (Russell) on camera turns into an unexpected journey that most kids could only dream about, per Netflix.
