David Harbour’s Santa Claus Is Back in Action in Violent Night 2 Trailer
David Harbour returns as action Santa, who must fight gangsters at a shopping mall with help from Kristen Bell’s Mrs. Claus.
- Four years after the first Violent Night, Universal Pictures has released a trailer for the sequel starring David Harbour as Santa Claus, who battles goons at a shopping mall. Director Tommy Wirkola returns for the Die Hard-inspired film.
- Somehow, Santa has been placed on the Naughty list and must rediscover the meaning of Christmas while facing repercussions from his previous outing. He confronts a ruthless gangster, Jared Harris, terrorizing the mall's merchants.
- Joining Santa in the fight is his wife, Mrs. Claus, played by Kristen Bell. The supporting cast includes Joe Pantoliano, Daniela Melchior, Andrew Bachelor, and professional wrestler MJF.
- While the trailer appears narrative-heavy and confusing, the film aims to deliver a worthy follow-up to the original Violent Night. The production hopes to recapture the heartwarming holiday spirit that defined the first entry.
- Questions remain regarding how Santa ended up on the Naughty list, given his usual control over the Nice list. This central mystery drives the action as the sequel releases December 4.
