Disney+ has officially announced that Golden Globe winner Tim Allen (Home Improvement) has signed on to reprise his iconic role as Scott Calvin in an original limited series, based on the classic holiday trilogy, The Santa Clause.
He went on to reprise the role in two sequels, 2002’s The Santa Clause 2 and 2006’s The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause.
Fans last saw Allen’s Scott in the 2006 film titled The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause, where Martin Short’s Jack Frost tricks him into renouncing his position as Santa Clause.
“In the Disney+ series, Scott Calvin is on the brink of his 65th birthday and realizing that he can’t be Santa forever,” reads the synopsis.
