Allen will once again suit up as Santa as he prepares to retire after three decades as the king of Christmas. "After nearly three decades of being Santa Claus, Scott Calvin's magic begins to falter," the official series synopsis reads. "As he struggles to keep up with the demands of the job, Scott discovers a new clause that forces him to re-think his role as Santa and as a father."
Allen's been busy since he first took on the role of Santa in 1994. He went on to continue playing Tim the Tool Man Taylor on "Home Improvement" until 1999, and had success in "The Last Man Standing" from 2011 to 2021, and as the voice of Buzz Lightyear in the Toy Story franchise, among other things.
Allen is father to Elizabeth Allen Dick and Katherine Allen. Elizabeth, who is 13-years-old, will star in "The Santa Clauses" as his onscreen daughter, Sandra.
