Get Your First Look at David Harbour As A Badass Santa Claus In Poster For 'VIOLENT NIGHT'

Tommy Wirkola (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Dead Snow franchise) is back with another terror tale to ease you into the upcoming Holiday season with new movie, ‘Violent Night’. The film stars David Harbour (“Stranger Things”) as a kick ass Santa Claus and today we get to see him in all his glory on the films poster.

“You better watch out,” the poster’s tagline reads, and David Harbour’s Santa Claus takes center stage. He’s battered and bloody, holding a flaming candy cane in his teeth.

Check out the Violent Night poster below and expect a trailer soon.

Universal will release Violent Night on December 2, 2022.

Violent Night was compared to Die Hard by David Harbour at CinemaCon earlier this year, the film centered on Harbour’s Santa Claus rescuing a family that’s been taken hostage. It’s being described as a violent action-comedy, with John Leguizamo playing the villain!

In the film, “A team of elite mercenaries breaks into a wealthy family compound on Christmas Eve, taking everyone inside hostage. But the team isn’t prepared for a surprise combatant: Santa Claus (Harbour) is on the grounds, and he’s about to show why this Nick is no saint.”

Beverly D’Angelo, Alex Haskell and Alexis Louder are also in the upcoming Focus Features movie, starring alongside Edi Patterson and Cam Gigandet.

Pat Casey and Josh Miller (Sonic) wrote the movie.

Kelly McCormick and David Leitch produced for 87North.
