Disney+ Announces a Season 2 Renewal for Holiday Series THE SANTA CLAUSES
Disney+ has announced the season 2 renewal of their holiday spinoff series The Santa Clauses. Season 1 launched in November, and is wrapping up this week.
The series stars Tim Allen and Elizabeth Mitchell reprising their roles as Santa, aka Scott Calvin, and Mrs. Claus, aka Carol, respectively, from the The Santa Clause movies. In Season 1, Scott has been Santa Claus for nearly thirty years, but as Christmas declines in popularity, so does his Santa magic. Scott struggles to keep up with the demands of the job, as well as being there for his family. Upon discovering there is a way to retire from his post, Scott considers stepping down as Santa Claus and finding a worthy successor so that he can become a better father and husband.
Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television said in a statement: “This franchise has had a lasting impact for so many families, truly becoming part of their annual holiday traditions. Bringing it back as a series has been a true gift, and I’m grateful to our producing partners at 20th Television and, of course, Tim Allen and team, that we have yet another reason to celebrate this holiday season.”
Jack Burditt serves as showrunner, and executive produces alongside Allen, Kevin Hench, Richard Baker and Small Dog Picture Company’s Rick Messina and Jason Winer. 20th Television is the studio.
