Kendrick’s comedy skills are well known which makes her a perfect fit for a film like this.
Kendrick has previously worked with Disney once before when she played Cinderella in the film adaptation of the musical Into the Woods.
The title role of Nicole is going to Anna Kendrick who will play the daughter of Santa Claus, who takes over the family business after her brother apparently gets cold feet over taking on the position.
While she tends to make more adult comedies, she’s a generally well-regarded actress with broad appeal to audiences so we can imagine that this movie already has massive potential.
