Looks like Santa came a little late this year. Tim Allen will be returning to the infamous red and white suit for the upcoming limited series The Santa Clause for Disney+.
Allen will be executive producing and starring in the upcoming show and will be reuniting with his Last Man Standing creator Jack Burditt, who is also serving as a producer. Below is a quick synopsis from the Walt Disney Company:
“Scott Calvin (Allen) is on the brink of his 65th birthday and realizing that he can’t be Santa forever. He’s starting to lose a step in his Santa duties, and more importantly, he’s got a family who could benefit from a life in the normal world, especially his two kids who have grown up at the Pole. With a lot of elves, children, and family to please, Scott sets out to find a suitable replacement Santa while preparing his family for a new adventure in a life south of the pole.”

Allen portrayed the role of Scott Calvin, an uptight lawyer who eventually becomes Santa Clause through a magical loophole, in three films. The 1994 film, The Santa Clause, spawned two sequels, The Santa Clause 2 and The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause.
