Santa is going to save the day with fists, not presents, in the new film Violent Night. John Leguizamo says that Santa is very different than what you have seen before.

Santa is not a jolly old Saint Nicholas. It's not the same. Santa has created a world where people are greedy and selfish. The spirit of Christmas is all about the number of gifts. Santa doesn't show any remorse as he likes to spend time at the bar instead of in the sky.

Santa witnessed an attack on a wealthy family's home on Christmas Eve. Scrooge leads the mercenaries as they attempt to break into the family's vault and steal hundreds of million of dollars. Santa accepted and fought the mercenaries when a young girl asked him to intervene. It's not your ordinary Christmas movie, but it's similar to other holiday movies before it.

Two movies in one. Harbour said that this crazy Die Hard was trapped in a house and had mercenaries vault under it. You have Miracle on 34th Street, and they just sort of hit each other.

The ensemble cast of Violent Night includes Cam Gigandet, Ali Asghar Shah, and Beverly D'Angelo, as well as other well-known actors. David Leitch is the director of Bullet Train. There is a little bit of everything in the film, but it is a Christmas movie.

Leguizamo said it was all-you-can- eat violence, gore, hilarious, touching and moving.

The movie Violent Night will be released on December 2.
