10 Actors We’d Love to See Play Santa on the Big Screen

Santa is one of the most endearing characters an actor can play. No matter what the angle — good, bad, comedic, serious, or something in between — audiences swoon for a heartfelt depiction of Ol’ Saint Nick. Steve Carell of The Office fame recently won over the internet with his turn as Kris Kringle in The Greatest Gift, an Xfinity commercial that dropped on Thanksgiving.

That performance made us brainstorm other leading men we’d like to see suit up in the classic red-and-white suit. These are 10 actors we’d love to see play Santa on the big screen. Maybe during a future holiday season (when movie theaters are back at full capacity), we’ll get our Christmas casting wish!
