Norwegian filmmaker Tommy Wirkola (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Dead Snow franchise) is back with new movie Violent Night, which stars David Harbour (“Stranger Things”) as a badass, ass-kicking Santa Claus. We’ve been waiting for a first-look at the movie for a while now, and today it has arrived in the form of the movie’s official poster art.

“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.

After watching this, it definitely has a place in my Christmas rotation of movies at the end of this year. Incredibly fun movie, David Harbour owns as an ass kicking Santa. John Leguizamo plays a really entertaining lead bad guy. Paced extremely well, very gory at times and the action scenes were a total blast.
