In 1996, Schwarzenegger starred in the Christmas comedy ‘Jingle All the Way’.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is embracing the holiday season for his upcoming movie.
In his latest film, "The Man with the Bag," the "Terminator" actor has taken on the role of Santa Claus.
Schwarzenegger was seen in New York City filming scenes for the movie while wearing a bright red coat and sporting white hair and a beard to match.
According to Entertainment Weekly, "The Man with the Bag," starring Schwarzenegger as Santa Claus, is a film from Amazon MGM studios. In the movie, Santa Claus, played by Schwarzenegger, enlists the help of a thief off his naughty list, portrayed by "Reacher" star Alan Ritchson, after his magic bag is stolen.
During a break in filming, Schwarzenegger posted a photo of himself and Ritchson on Instagram.
The elderly man wrote in a caption that Santa Claus is coming to town.
Working with @alanritchson on 'The Man with the Bag' is fantastic. Our director @adamshankman is hilarious, New York City is a great host, collaborating with @amazonmgmstudios is a pleasure, and I can't wait to share all of this Christmas cheer with you.
Schwarzenegger's first feature film in five years is a holiday action-comedy, following 2019's "Terminator: Dark Fate." He also recently starred in "FUBAR" on Netflix, where he was also executive producer.
In 1996, Schwarzenegger starred in the holiday classic "Jingle All the Way," where he played a father on a mission to find the perfect gift for his son, the highly sought-after Turbo Man action figure. Along the way, he faced competition from other shoppers and another determined father, portrayed by Sinbad.
