Mike White Writing New Christmas Comedy Called Santa Wars
Paramount and Scott Rudin are teaming together for a new Christmas comedy that will feature battling Santas. Mike White set to write the script for the film as well.
The comedy is based on the true story of rival factions that developed within a union of professional Santa Clauses who became arch enemies during a Santa Claus civil war. Rudin will produce along with Mike White and his Rip Cord Prods. Rudin and White worked together previously on School of Rock and Orange County.
I am sort of Jack Black fan and could totally see him in this movie and what would be funny is to have Seth Rogen in the other faction and they are both the rivals.
I love Christmas movies as an FYI, so I am somewhat excited to see this film and hear more about it as it gets developed. Lastly, I am kind of miffed that I haven’t heard anything from School of Rock 2, last we heard they were doing a sequel revolving around a cross country tour. Parts of the film are going to be filmed in Memphis.
