Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the family comedy genre, now as the star of the Christmas movie The Man With The Bag. The actor surprised his fans by sharing an image on his social media where he shows his character, Santa Claus, with the iconic white beard and hair.
The movie, produced by MGM, also features Alan Ritchson in its cast, who is known for his role in the Reacher series and the tenth film in the Fast & Furious franchise.
What is the movie The Man With The Bag about?
The plot of The Man With The Bag begins when Santa Claus becomes the victim of a robbery in which his gift bag is stolen. Desperate to save Christmas, he turns to Vance, an old friend and ex-convict. Along with Santa’s daughter and a group of slightly out-of-place elves, they embark on an adventure to recover the lost bag.
The movie is directed by Adam Shankman, known for his work as a choreographer in comedies like Hairspray (2007), where he shared scenes with John Travolta and Zac Efron.
This is not Arnold Schwarzenegger’s first Christmas project; in 1992, he made his directorial debut with Christmas in Connecticut. He also starred in Jingle All the Way in 1996, a film about two fathers competing to get the Turbo-Man action figure for their children on Christmas Eve.
