Last year, a TV series version of the popular movie trilogy The Santa Clause came to Disney+.

It was revealed in December that the show would be getting a second season as well, so we’ve been keeping our eyes peeled for any news surrounding the new season. We’ve just found out that a popular and well-known actor will be joining the new season as a character you may not expect!
Variety has released that actor Eric Stonestreet, primarily known for the TV series Modern Family, has joined the cast of The Santa Clauses for the second season.

Eric will portray Magnus Antas (aka the Mad Santa) who “reigned during the 14th century and is now returning to try and take down Scott Calvin and reclaim the North Pole.”

Season two of the series as a whole will follow the Calvin family back in the North Pole after Scott Calvin’s retirement plans failed, and he works to train his son, Calvin, to eventually take over the role of Santa.

You can watch the entirety of season 1 on Disney+ now, and while you’re at it, take a look at everything coming to the streaming service in March. As always, stay tuned to AllEars for all the latest news!
