Written by Brittany Styles on February 27, 2023
We loved him as Cam on Modern Family and now he’s joining the second season of The Santa Clauses series on Disney+!
According to Variety, Stonestreet will “portray Magnus Antas (aka the Mad Santa), who reigned during the 14th century and is now returning to try and take down Scott Calvin and reclaim the North Pole.”
Variety also reports, “Tim Allen will executive produce and continue to reprise the beloved role of Santa/Scott Calvin. Elizabeth Mitchell is attached to return as a series regular in Season 2 as Mrs. Claus/Carol. She’s joined by Elizabeth Allen-Dick as Sandra Calvin Claus, Austin Kane as Cal Calvin Claus, and Devin Bright as Santa’s elf bestie Noel. Matilda Lawler will reprise her role of Santa’s chief of staff, Betty, as a recurring guest star.”
“Additional guest stars include newcomer Marta Kessler as Olga, a surly, take-no-prisoners gnome who doesn’t understand “feelings” and “empathy” and sidekick to Magnus Antas, aka The Mad Santa. Other returning guest stars include Liam Kyle as Gary, Isabella Bennett as Edie, Sasha Knight as Crouton, Ruby Jay as Riley, Mia Lynn Bangunan as Pontoon, and Laura San Giacomo as La Befana, the Christmas Witch.”
A premiere date for season two of The Santa Clauses has not yet been announced. In the meantime, you can watch season 1 on Disney+!
